这是一个接受命令行参数的基本main方法，您可能需要附加自己的错误检查或将其塑造为您认为合适的方式。

public class DeleteFiles {

/**

 * destination to read to

    public static void main(String[] args)
                     throws FileNotFoundException,IOException {
        File src = new File(args[0]);
        if (!src.exists() ) {
            System.out.println("FAILURE!");
        }else{
            // Gathers files in directory
            File[] a = src.listFiles();
            for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
                //Sends files to recursive deletion method
                fileDelete(a[i]);
            }
            // Deletes original source folder
            src.delete();
            System.out.println("Success!");
        }

    /**

    private static void fileDelete(File srcFile)
                     throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {

        if (srcFile.isDirectory()) {
            //Gathers files in directory
            File[] b = srcFile.listFiles();
            for (int i = 0; i < b.length; i++) {
                //Recursively deletes all files and sub-directories
                fileDelete(b[i]);
            }
            // Deletes original sub-directory file
            srcFile.delete();

            srcFile.delete();

}

我希望这对你有所帮助!

在Java 7+中，你可以使用Files类。代码非常简单:

Path directory = Paths.get("/tmp");
Files.walkFileTree(directory, new SimpleFileVisitor<Path>() {
   @Override
   public FileVisitResult visitFile(Path file, BasicFileAttributes attrs) throws IOException {
       Files.delete(file);
       return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
   }

   @Override
   public FileVisitResult postVisitDirectory(Path dir, IOException exc) throws IOException {
       Files.delete(dir);
       return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
   }
});

使用符号链接和上面的代码失败的两种方式…也不知道怎么解决。

方法# 1

运行这个来创建一个测试:

echo test > testfile
mkdir dirtodelete
ln -s badlink dirtodelete/badlinktodelete

下面你可以看到你的测试文件和测试目录:

$ ls testfile dirtodelete
testfile

dirtodelete:
linktodelete

然后运行common -io deleteDirectory()。它崩溃，说文件没有找到。不知道其他例子是怎么做的。Linux的rm命令会简单地删除链接，目录上的rm -r也会删除链接。

Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: File does not exist: /tmp/dirtodelete/linktodelete

方法# 2

运行这个来创建一个测试:

mkdir testdir
echo test > testdir/testfile
mkdir dirtodelete
ln -s ../testdir dirtodelete/dirlinktodelete

下面你可以看到你的测试文件和测试目录:

$ ls dirtodelete testdir
dirtodelete:
dirlinktodelete

testdir:
testfile

然后运行common -io deleteDirectory()或人们发布的示例代码。它不仅会删除目录，还会删除位于被删除目录之外的testfile。(它隐式地取消对目录的引用，并删除内容)。Rm -r只会删除链接。你需要使用类似这样的方法删除被解引用的文件:"find -L dirtodelete -type f -exec rm {} \;"

$ ls dirtodelete testdir
ls: cannot access dirtodelete: No such file or directory
testdir:

public static void deleteDirectory(File path) 
{
    if (path == null)
        return;
    if (path.exists())
    {
        for(File f : path.listFiles())
        {
            if(f.isDirectory()) 
            {
                deleteDirectory(f);
                f.delete();
            }
            else
            {
                f.delete();
            }
        }
        path.delete();
    }
}

如果你有Spring，你可以使用filesystemutils . deleterecursive:

import org.springframework.util.FileSystemUtils;

boolean success = FileSystemUtils.deleteRecursively(new File("directory"));

为了更安全的使用，我编写了有3个安全标准的程序。
