这就是我的工作…(简洁且经过测试)

    ...
    deleteDir(new File(dir_to_be_deleted));
    ...

    // delete directory and contents
    void deleteDir(File file) { 
        if (file.isDirectory())
            for (String child : file.list())
                deleteDir(new File(file, child));
        file.delete();  // delete child file or empty directory
    }

如果该目录在Java中有子目录或文件，则不能删除该目录。试试这两行简单的解决方案。这将删除目录和目录内的竞争。

File dirName = new File("directory path");
FileUtils.deleteDirectory(dirName);

在gradle文件中添加这一行并同步项目

compile 'org.apache.commons:commons-io:1.3.2'  

这就是我的工作…(简洁且经过测试)

    ...
    deleteDir(new File(dir_to_be_deleted));
    ...

    // delete directory and contents
    void deleteDir(File file) { 
        if (file.isDirectory())
            for (String child : file.list())
                deleteDir(new File(file, child));
        file.delete();  // delete child file or empty directory
    }

看到android.os。FileUtils，它隐藏在API 21上

public static boolean deleteContents(File dir) {
    File[] files = dir.listFiles();
    boolean success = true;
    if (files != null) {
        for (File file : files) {
            if (file.isDirectory()) {
                success &= deleteContents(file);
            }
            if (!file.delete()) {
                Log.w("Failed to delete " + file);
                success = false;
            }
        }
    }
    return success;
}

有很多答案，但我决定加上我自己的，因为它有点不同。它是基于OOP的;)

我创建了DirectoryCleaner类，每当我需要清理某个目录时，它都会帮助我。

public class DirectoryCleaner {
    private final File mFile;

    public DirectoryCleaner(File file) {
        mFile = file;
    }

    public void clean() {
        if (null == mFile || !mFile.exists() || !mFile.isDirectory()) return;
        for (File file : mFile.listFiles()) {
            delete(file);
        }
    }

    private void delete(File file) {
        if (file.isDirectory()) {
            for (File child : file.listFiles()) {
                delete(child);
            }
        }
        file.delete();

    }
}

可以用下面的方法来解决这个问题:

File dir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "your_directory_name");
new DirectoryCleaner(dir).clean();
dir.delete();

在Kotlin中，您可以使用Kotlin中的deleterecursive()扩展。io包

val someDir = File("/path/to/dir")
someDir.deleteRecursively()
