  • Article

This function deletes an existing empty directory. CeRemoveDirectory is a RAPI that enables an application that is running on a desktop computer to make function calls on a Microsoft® Windows® CE–based device.

  LPCWSTR lpPathName 
);

Parameters

  • lpPathName
    [in] Long pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the path of the directory to be removed. The path must specify an empty directory, and the calling process must have delete access to the directory.

Return Values
