Deletes an existing empty directory.

BOOLEAN RemoveDirectory(
    LPCTSTR lpPathName
);

Parameters

lpPathName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the path of the directory to remove. The path must specify an empty directory.

Remarks

A bad path results in ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND instead of ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND.

RemoveDirectory operates only on empty directories. If the directory is not empty, an application must first recursively enumerate and delete the files and subdirectories inside the directory.

Return Values

Non-zero
Success.
0 (zero)
Failure. For extended error information, see GetLastError.

Requirements

Versions Defined in Include Link to
INtime 3.0 intime/rt/include/winbase.h windows.h iwin32.lib
