An improved version of recursive rmdir (for non-empty directories). Now checking for symlinks.
Returns false on failure:
<?php
function rrmdir($dir) {
if (is_dir($dir)) {
$dirscan = scandir($dir);
foreach ($dirscan as $object) {
if ($object != "." && $object != "..") {
if (is_link($dir."/".$object)) { # object is symlink
if (!unlink($dir."/".$object)) return FALSE;
} elseif (is_dir($dir."/".$object)) { # object is folder
if (!rrmdir($dir."/".$object)) return FALSE;
} else { # object is file
if (!unlink($dir."/".$object)) return FALSE;
}
}
}
reset($dirscan);
if (!rmdir($dir)) return FALSE;
return TRUE;
} else return FALSE;
}
?>
