// Java 8的lambda & stream，如果参数是目录

static boolean delRecursive(File dir) {
    return Arrays.stream(dir.listFiles()).allMatch((f) -> f.isDirectory() ? delRecursive(f) : f.delete()) && dir.delete();
}

如果参数是文件或目录

static boolean delRecursive(File fileOrDir) {
    return fileOrDir.isDirectory() ? Arrays.stream(fileOrDir.listFiles()).allMatch((f) -> delRecursive(f)) && fileOrDir.delete() : fileOrDir.delete();
}

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;
   }
});

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。

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;

public class DeleteFiles {

/**
 * @param intitial arguments take in a source to read from and a 
 * 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!");
        }
    }

    /**
     * @param srcFile Source file to examine
     * @throws FileNotFoundException if File not found
     * @throws IOException if File not found
     */
    private static void fileDelete(File srcFile)
                     throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
        // Checks if file is a directory
        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();
        } else {
            srcFile.delete();
        }
    }
}

我希望这对你有所帮助!

也许这个问题的解决方案是使用erickson回答中的代码重新实现File类的delete方法:

public class MyFile extends File {

  ... <- copy constructor

  public boolean delete() {
    if (f.isDirectory()) {
      for (File c : f.listFiles()) {
        return new MyFile(c).delete();
      }
    } else {
        return f.delete();
    }
  }
}

番石榴21.0及以上版本

有一个void deleterecursive (Path Path, RecursiveDeleteOption…)options)会抛出从Guava 21.0开始可用的MoreFiles类的IOException静态方法。

请参阅Javadoc文档:

public static void deleteRecursively(Path path, RecursiveDeleteOption... options) throws IOException Deletes the file or directory at the given path recursively. Deletes symbolic links, not their targets (subject to the caveat below). If an I/O exception occurs attempting to read, open or delete any file under the given directory, this method skips that file and continues. All such exceptions are collected and, after attempting to delete all files, an IOException is thrown containing those exceptions as suppressed exceptions.

您应该查看Apache的commons-io。它有一个FileUtils类，可以做你想做的事情。

FileUtils.deleteDirectory(new File("directory"));
