> oh, I missed that a notification happens to the other process(es) in a > common case, a bit of retrying with backoff would actually make sense The other common problem with deleting an empty directory is when it's opened as the working directory of a process. This case fails as a sharing violation because the open doesn't share delete access. There's nothing reasonable to do about it without user interaction, which would be a complicated bit of code: find the process that has the directory open, display a message to the user in the desktop session of the process, and wait for a response. That's not a good candidate for the standard library. |
