类似Playnox的解决方案，但有优雅的内置DirectoryIterator:

function delete_directory($dirPath){
 if(is_dir($dirPath)){
  $objects=new DirectoryIterator($dirPath);
   foreach ($objects as $object){
    if(!$object->isDot()){
     if($object->isDir()){
      delete_directory($object->getPathname());
     }else{
      unlink($object->getPathname());
     }
    }
   }
   rmdir($dirPath);
  }else{
   throw new Exception(__FUNCTION__.'(dirPath): dirPath is not a directory!');
  }
 }

windows:

system("rmdir ".escapeshellarg($path) . " /s /q");

您可以尝试如下:

/*
 * Remove the directory and its content (all files and subdirectories).
 * @param string $dir the directory name
 */
function rmrf($dir) {
    foreach (glob($dir) as $file) {
        if (is_dir($file)) { 
            rmrf("$file/*");
            rmdir($file);
        } else {
            unlink($file);
        }
    }
}

您可以尝试这简单的12行代码删除文件夹或文件夹文件… 快乐的编码…;):)

function deleteAll($str) {
    if (is_file($str)) {
        return unlink($str);
    }
    elseif (is_dir($str)) {
        $scan = glob(rtrim($str,'/').'/*');
        foreach($scan as $index=>$path) {
            $this->deleteAll($path);
        }            
        return @rmdir($str);
    }
}

使用DirectoryIterator等价于之前的答案…

function deleteFolder($rootPath)
{   
    foreach(new DirectoryIterator($rootPath) as $fileToDelete)
    {
        if($fileToDelete->isDot()) continue;
        if ($fileToDelete->isFile())
            unlink($fileToDelete->getPathName());
        if ($fileToDelete->isDir())
            deleteFolder($fileToDelete->getPathName());
    }

    rmdir($rootPath);
}

我更喜欢这个，因为它仍然在成功时返回TRUE，失败时返回FALSE，而且它还防止了一个错误，即一个空路径可能会尝试删除'/*'中的所有内容!!：

function deleteDir($path)
{
    return !empty($path) && is_file($path) ?
        @unlink($path) :
        (array_reduce(glob($path.'/*'), function ($r, $i) { return $r && deleteDir($i); }, TRUE)) && @rmdir($path);
}
