Remarks

Use this method to delete a group of files from the SFTP server. Specify the files to be deleted via RemotePath and Mask parameters. Use CaseSensitive and Recursive parameters to tune up the operation.

This method is a more efficient way to delete a group of files than deleting them one by one.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
