Shri Javadekar created JCLOUDS-684:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Add option to delete containers without deleting objects
inside it
Key: JCLOUDS-684
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-684
Project: jclouds
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: jclouds-blobstore
Affects Versions: 1.8.0
Reporter: Shri Javadekar
Fix For: 2.0.0
Some blobstores such as Microsoft Azure[1] have the ability to delete
containers even when they are not empty. These object stores simply return
after marking the containers for deletion and asynchronously delete the blobs
and container in which the blobs exist.
jclouds should have an option by which calling deleteContainer() should simply
issue the delete request to the blobstore. It should not internally try and
delete all the blobs in the container.
