SmartPascal RmDir Procedure Remove a directory System unit

procedure RmDir ( const DirectoryName : string ) ;

Description The RmDir procedure removes a directory from the current directory.   If the directory does not exist, an EInOutError exception is thrown.   You can avoid such an exception by preventing IO errors using the {$IOChecks Off} compiler directive. You must then check the IOResult value to see the outcome of your IO operation (rememering that use of IOResult resets the value). Related commands $IOChecks When on, an IO operation error throws an exception ChDir Change the working drive plus path for a specified drive CreateDir Create a directory GetCurrentDir Get the current directory (drive plus directory) IOResult Holds the return code of the last I/O operation MkDir Make a directory RemoveDir Remove a directory SelectDirectory Display a dialog to allow user selection of a directory SetCurrentDir Change the current directory ForceDirectories Create a new path of directories		Example code : Create a directory and then remove it // Full Unit code. // ----------------------------------------------------------- // You must store this code in a unit called Unit1 with a form // called Form1 that has an OnCreate event called FormCreate.   unit Unit1;   interface   uses   // The System unit does not need to be defined   Forms, Dialogs;   type   TForm1 = class(TForm)     procedure FormCreate(Sender: TObject);   end;   var   Form1: TForm1;   implementation {$R *.dfm} // Include form definitions   procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject); var   error : Integer; begin   // Try to create a new subdirectory in the current directory   // Switch off I/O error checking   {$IOChecks off}   MkDir('TempDirectory');   // Did the directory get created OK?   error := IOResult;   if error = 0   then ShowMessage('Directory created OK')   else ShowMessageFmt('Directory creation failed with error %d',[error]);   // Delete the directory to tidy up   RmDir('TempDirectory');   // Did the directory get removed OK?   error := IOResult;   if error = 0   then ShowMessage('Directory removed OK')   else ShowMessageFmt('Directory removal failed with error %d',[error]); end;   end.
