Hi,
i would like to remove a folder at runtime, but somehow the folder did not
get deleted, here is my code to delete the folder:
Path changePath = new Path("\\Module1\\folder");
IFile addedFile =
ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getFile(changePath) ;
addedFile.delete(IResource.FORCE, null);
can you please tell me whats wrong?
i didn't not get any exception during the deletion, and the folder is empty
Thank you very much

Use IFolder rather than IFile and this works fine
IProject proj =
ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getProject("Module1 ");
proj.create(null);
proj.open(null);
IFolder fol = proj.getFolder("folder");
fol.create(true, true, null);
Path changePath = new Path("\\Module1\\folder");
IFolder addedFile =
ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getFolder(changePat h);
assertTrue(addedFile.exists());
addedFile.delete(IResource.FORCE, null);
assertFalse(addedFile.exists());
