<h3>Deleting Trees</h3> |
| 322 |
<p>The <code>"deltree"</code> action is a pseudo action used as a |
| 323 |
commodity to delete, with only one task, an entire tree of files and |
| 324 |
directories. |
| 325 |
This action is internally exploded into a <code>"delete"</code> and |
| 326 |
then a <code>"rmdir"</code> actions using the same |
| 327 |
<code>remotedir</code> and filesets. |
| 328 |
To be sure to succeed you must be sure the filesets patterns selects all the |
| 329 |
files and directories in the trees you want to delete. |
| 330 |
All the recommendations of <code>"rmdir"</code> actions apply. |
| 331 |
</p> |
| 332 |
<p> |
| 333 |
The advantage of using <code>"deltree"</code> action instead of |
| 334 |
<code>"delete"</code> and then <code>"rmdir"</code>, |
| 335 |
other than writing only once the <code><ftp></code> task, is that |
| 336 |
the scanning of <code>remotedir</code> for matching with filesets patterns |
| 337 |
is done only once, which may be a bonus for large trees, large filesets |
| 338 |
and slow servers or connections. |
