The front end Default.aspx page looks something like this:
<fieldset style="margin-left: 100px; margin-right: 100px">
<legend>
Deleting all File
</legend>
<asp:Label ID="lblInput" runat="server" Text="Please Choose Path:" Width="130px"></asp:Label>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPath" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<br />
<br />
<asp:Button ID="btnOk" runat="server" OnClick="btnOk_Click" Text="Ok" Width="91px" /></fieldset> |
The flow for the code behind page is as follows.
Imports System.IO
Partial Class _Default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Protected Sub btnOk_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim Dire() As DirectoryInfo Dim file() As FileInfo Dim i As Integer If txtPath.Text <> "" Then
Dim dir As New DirectoryInfo(txtPath.Text) Dire = dir.GetDirectories() file = dir.GetFiles() If Dire.Length > 0 Then
For i = 0 To Dire.Length - 1
Dire(i).Delete(True) Next End If If file.Length > 0 Then
For i = 0 To file.Length - 1
file(i).Delete() Next End If End If End Sub Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load End Sub |
