Gio.File::delete_file

function vfunc_delete_file(cancellable: Gio.Cancellable): Boolean {
}
  

Deletes a file. If the file is a directory, it will only be deleted if it is empty. This has the same semantics as GLib.unlink.

If cancellable is not null, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error Gio.IOErrorEnum.cancelled will be returned.

cancellable

optional Gio.Cancellable object, null to ignore

Returns

true if the file was deleted. false otherwise.
