The finder allows one to "secure empty trash". I want to add a feature to shred parts of the archive my program makes.
Is there some OSX API to do this? Alternatively I can roll my own, but I'm wondering if overwriting a file, followed by F_FULLFSYNC is really enough because stuff might be left in spotlight. Anyone know? Amit Singh's book says spotlight can miss events, so deleting could be missed. Is there a way to tell spotlight to delete a file without removing the whole index for the volume?
