Delete Project Resource not working [message #34163]

I have created my own view and added the resources which are IAdaptables.
When try to delete the project resource as soon as it is created I got the
following exception:

org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.ResourceException: Problems
encountered while deleting resources.
at org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Resource.delete(Resource .java:467)
at org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.Project.delete(Project.j ava:290)

at com.ibm.btools.csm.ui.actions.DeleteAction.run(DeleteAction. java:146)

What will be cause for the above exception? How do I fix it?

DeleteAction is my own action which will be used to call delete operation
for the resource from my own view.

Bala,

I have seen this on Windows. If I have a program which has a handle to
the file I am deleting or a handle to a file under the directory I am
deleting, then the deletion fails.

For example, often I have a command prompt open and I have cd'ed deep
into a directory tree. Then in Eclipse I try and delete the directory
tree, and it fails.

Is the project in sync with the file system? You could try a refreshLocal.

Hi Knut Radloff,

I have the project created in the view and called refreshLocal
programatically during the creation. Also before delete the project,
refreshLocal is called and try to delete the project. For me it is not
deleted the project first time (meaning as soon as I created) otherwise
delete was successful(my second attempt after some other
edit/modification).

I have also seen this under Linux when I try to delete an entire project
and there are symbolic links involved. If a real file gets deleted before
the symbolic link to it gets deleted, the delete process seems unable to
delete the symbolic link. I then have to go in manually and do the old
\"rm -rf *\" deal to get rid of the rest of the project. I have been
meaning to post a bugzilla report on this, but haven\'t yet.

You should enter a bug against Platform Core. Include a test case that demonstrates the problem and they'll be able to either fix it
or tell you what's wrong with the code.
