Method: AddExisting for AutoRemove

Method: AddExisting for AutoRemove

Reserves a file or a folder for deletion. The folder is deleted automatically, as soon as the DataPlugin has stopped importing the data.

Object.AddExisting(sFileOrFolder)

The following example creates a temporary folder, unzips the ZIP archive FileName in this folder, and imports the data of the first file with the ATFX DataPlugin. As soon as the DataPlugin no longer needs the unzipped data, the example deletes the temporary folder and also the C:\Temp\ folder.

Sub ReadStore(FileName)
  Dim TempFolder
  TempFolder = AutoRemove.CreateFolder()

  Dim FileList
  FileList = Unzip(FileName, TempFolder)

  Call Root.ImportStore(TempFolder & FileList(0), "ATFX")

  Call AutoRemove.AddExisting("C:\Temp\")
End Sub
