Function remove_dir_all::remove_dir_all

pub fn remove_dir_all<P: AsRef<Path>>(path: P) -> Result<()>

Reliably removes a directory and all of its children.

use std::fs;
use remove_dir_all::*;

fs::create_dir("./temp/").unwrap();
remove_dir_all("./temp/").unwrap();

Note: calling this on a non-directory (e.g. a symlink to a directory) will error.

RemoveDir::remove_dir_contents is somewhat safer and recommended as the path based version is subject to file system races determining what to delete: a privileged process could be attacked by replacing parent directories of the supplied path with a link (e.g. to /etc). Consider using RemoveDir::remove_dir_contents instead.
