Empty a directory in your iOS App

How to empty a folder in Objective-C ?
A must have method! I always use it to erase my log files.


/** Empty a folder contents.

 @param folder Full path of the folder to be emptied.
 @return Returns true on success, false otherwise.

 */
+ (BOOL)emptyFolder:(NSString *)folder {
    NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
    NSError *err;
    NSArray *tmpFiles = [fileManager contentsOfDirectoryAtPath:folder error:&err];
    if (err) {
        LogError(@"Error occured: %@", err);
        return NO;
    }
    for (NSString *file in tmpFiles) {
        [fileManager removeItemAtPath:[folder stringByAppendingPathComponent:file] error:&err];
        if (err) {
            LogError(@"Error occured: %@", err);
            return NO;
        }
    }
    return YES;
}
