How to Delete external files? - scripting in JSL

wmwinn

Is there a way to Delete files from within the JSL scripting?  Looking for a DELETE command or something like that.

For example:

myfiles = Files In Directory("pathname")         => provides a list of all files in the pathname, and I would like to delete one or more of those files in the list.

Anybody know how to do this?  Thanks,

Hi,

If you're using an earlier release than jmp10 (for windows), you can in your script create a .bat file and also call this .bat to delete files.

===================================================

/* Create a .bat file command with delete instruction */

Save Text File("C:\deletemyfile.bat","del C:\myfolder\myfile.txt");

/* Execute the .bat file in order to delete the file */

Open("C:\deletemyfile.bat");

===================================================
