[lazarus] Making calls to External Programs
Hi, I need to clean up the /tmp folder and erase various files and directories that my App has created there. Using Linux, can I call bash from within my App to 'rmdir'? mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . _ To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the Subject archives at http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailarchives

Two approaches possible. There are DeleteFile and DeleteDirectory functions available in FPC/Lazarus. On the other hand you can also use TProcess to run any external command from FPC. Please check the Lazarus wiki which has an excelent article on how to use it. Darius Hi, I need to clean up the /tmp folder and erase various files and directories that my App has created there.
