Dear Roottalk,
I want to completely remove a TDirectory from a TFile. For example try the following script (also attached).
{
TFile *f = new TFile("test.root", "RECREATE");
TDirectory *d = f->mkdir("newdir");
cout << endl << endl << "The file now contains a directory on file and in memoroy..." << endl; f->ls();
f->Delete("newdir;*"); //delete directory
cout << endl << endl << "The file now contains a directory in memory..." << endl; f->ls();
f->Delete("newdir");
cout << endl << endl << "The file still contains a director in memeory..." << endl; f->ls();
delete d;
cout << endl << endl << "The directory has been completely removed." << endl;
f->ls();
}
Is this the expected behaviour when deleting a TDirectory from a TFile? I would think that TDirectory::Delete() should be able to completely remove a subdirectory? Maybe I've missed something?
I'm running ROOT v4.04 on Scientific Linux 4.1.
Thanks,
Dylan
