The rmdir(2) system call on Posix is a no-op if the directory is not empty. So I was thinking that we could just invoke rmdir() (or _rmdir() on windows) on the directory of a file every time a file is deleted, and let the OS worry about whether or not the directory is empty.
But then I read this on the Linux rmdir(2) manpage: "Infelicities in the protocol underlying NFS can cause the unexpected disappearance of directories which are still being used." Is that something to worry about? Anybody know? -- D. Richard Hipp [email protected]
