I want to delete all of the files in the folder on of the server after I download them using the Automated FTP library. I have it downloading just fine but I am confused on the command for deleting the fileset on the server.


I see this: DeleteFileSet (VerifyBeforeDelete As Boolean)

in the documentation but am unsure on exactly how to use it.

Any examples?

An example was given in the .lib - Thread, this should work:
Delete the lastest FileSet in memory from the server.
If you used a Mask to download a set of files, this function
will delelete all files in that last set.
NOTICE: use with care.
Click to expand...

B4X: 
DeleteFileSet(False) ' No confirmation
DeleteFileSet(True)  ' Confirmation

Otherwise to delete files:
B4X: 
DeleteFile("public/pictures/*.*")
