> applyDeletes method does not delete dangling links

>                 Key: TRANSACTION-19
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-19
>             Project: Commons Transaction
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.2
>         Environment: Linux CentOS, Java 1.5
>            Reporter: Bojan Vukojevic
>            Assignee: Oliver Zeigermann

> applyDeletes method will not delete any dangling links. Even if the link was 
> valid, code may run into this situation if the file is passed to be deleted 
> before link is registered for deletion. Code will delete the file 
> effectivelly creating a dangling link that will  not be deleted. 
> The fix might be another change to applyDeletes method i.e. something like:
> protected static void applyDeletes(File removeDir, File targetDir, File 
> rootDir) throws IOException {
>         if (removeDir.isDirectory() && targetDir.isDirectory()) {
>             File[] files = removeDir.listFiles();
>             for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
>                 File removeFile = files[i];
>                 File targetFile = new File(targetDir, removeFile.getName());
>                 if (!removeFile.isDirectory()) {
>                     if (targetFile.exists()) {
>                         if (!targetFile.delete()) {
>                             throw new IOException("Could not delete file " + 
> removeFile.getName()
>                                     + " in directory targetDir");
>                         }
>                     } else if(!targetFile.isFile()){  //============ CHANGE 
> to delete dangling link=============
>                       //this is likely a dangling link                        
>                       targetFile.delete();  
>                     }
>                     // indicate, this has been done
>                     removeFile.delete();
>                 } else {
>                     applyDeletes(removeFile, targetFile, rootDir);
>                 }
>                 // delete empty target directories, except root dir
>                 if (!targetDir.equals(rootDir) && targetDir.list().length == 
> 0) {
>                     targetDir.delete();
>                 }
>             }
>         }
>     }
