Andrew Gaul commented on JCLOUDS-684:
-------------------------------------
[~shrinand] AzureBlobAsyncClient.deleteContainer implements this already. Look
at these wire logs from blobstore-cli:
{noformat}
$ blobstore --properties $PROPERTIES blob list container-name
3
2
1
$ blobstore --properties $PROPERTIES container delete container-name
- >> DELETE

> 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.
