Andrew Gaul updated JCLOUDS-684:
--------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Shri Javadekar)
> 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
>
> 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.
