deleteDir function

void deleteDir(String path, { bool recursive = true, })

Deletes the directory located at path.

If recursive is true (default true) then the directory and all child files and directories will be deleted.

deleteDir("/tmp/testing", recursive=true);

If path is not a directory then a DeleteDirException is thrown.

If the directory does not exists a DeleteDirException is thrown.

If the directory cannot be delete (e.g. permissions) a DeleteDirException is thrown.

If recursive is false the directory must be empty otherwise a DeleteDirException is thrown.

• exists

    // ignore: discarded_futures
