delete abstract method

Future<FileSystemEntity> delete({
  1. bool recursive = false,
})
override

Deletes this Link.

If recursive is false:

If recursive is true:

  • The FileSystemEntity at path is deleted regardless of type. If path corresponds to a file or link, then that file or link is deleted. If path corresponds to a directory, then it and all sub-directories and files in those directories are deleted. Links are not followed when deleting recursively. Only the link is deleted, not its target. This behavior allows delete to be used to unconditionally delete any file system object.

If this Link cannot be deleted, then delete completes with a FileSystemException.

Implementation

Future<FileSystemEntity> delete({bool recursive = false});
