c# - How can FTPClient delete a directory? -

i want delete folder in ftp.

can ftpclient object delete it?

ftpwebrequest provides delete action. here piece of code achieve :

               ftpwebrequest reqftp = ftpwebrequest.create(uri);                 // credentials , login handling...                  reqftp.method = webrequestmethods.ftp.deletefile;                  string result = string.empty;                 ftpwebresponse response = reqftp.getresponse();                 long size = response.contentlength;                 stream datastream = response.getresponsestream();                 streamreader sr = new streamreader(datastream);                 result = sr.readtoend();                 sr.close();                 datastream.close();                 response.close(); 

it should work on files , directories. indeed, please check have right permissions.

also, not delete folders while not empty. must traverse them recursively delete content before.

the exceptions thrown due right permissions problems not clear...
