c++ delete directory

To delete a directory in C++, you can use the std::filesystem library. Here are the steps to delete a directory:

1. Include the necessary header file: cpp #include <filesystem>

2. Use the std::filesystem::remove_all() function to delete the directory: cpp std::filesystem::remove_all("directory_path");

Replace "directory_path" with the actual path of the directory you want to delete.

1. Optionally, you can check if the directory was deleted successfully: cpp if (std::filesystem::remove_all("directory_path") > 0) { // Directory was deleted successfully } else { // Failed to delete the directory }

This step is useful if you want to handle errors or perform additional actions based on the deletion result.

That's it! Following these steps will allow you to delete a directory using C++ and the std::filesystem library.
