#Deepvacuum not grabbing subdirectories windows 7#

This project and all applications discussed were running on Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit. Granted this doesn't necessarily resolve the issue, it sidesteps it, but if the goal is to get the project structure back in order and working again, this should do the trick. Suddenly, IntelliJ and Tortoise SVN were both back to normal, and I was back to debugging. I just created an _undeletable directory completely outside my project structure and performed a simple GUI-based Cut and Paste of the topOfBadTree folder - meaning I Cut it from my project and Pasted it in the _undeletable directory. SomeProject/src/test/resources/com/m圜ompany/myApp/topOfBadTree/bad/bad/./bad/. However, I was able to resolve the issue by simply moving the uppermost directory of the offending directory tree. When I waited long enough both applications eventually bombed out trying to traverse this horrible directory structure. Now, I didn't have this structure committed to any repo, but it was grinding my SVN utility and IntelliJ's indexing procedure to complete stand-stills.

I if I find it I will update this post to include it.) (I've since lost the link that I'm quoting there. It was officially deemed an 'undeletable' directory structure in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. I had a similar issue today with a recursion bug creating an absurdly huge tree of files in my project structure. The link from (above) however performed beautifully. I think I just had a very extreme case (not unlike the OP). I'd like to note that I tried all of the solutions offered in this thread to no avail. This actually solves the problem fairly elegantly as it is a top-down delete rather than a bottom-up. It involves writing a batch file to perform a rename move delete repeat So after realizing the hard way that my recursion bug was still there (see original post below) I stumbled across this post. (String.format('Files to delete: %1$d', stack.size())) Public static void main(String args) throws InterruptedException while(files != null & files.length > 0) I had more than 700 child dirs with the same name and in some cases with files inside. It is important the Threa.sleep(100) that you will see in the next lines because that lets the Windows OS have time to delete the very deeeeeeep directory. In ‘ Wget will consider ‘bar’ to be a directory, while in ‘ (no trailing slash), ‘bar’ will be considered a filename (so ‘-no-parent’ would be meaningless, as its parent is ‘/’).I had to build a java program to do the job.

HTTP has no concept of a “directory”-Wget relies on you to indicate what’s a directory and what isn’t. Note that, for HTTP (and HTTPS), the trailing slash is very important to ‘-no-parent’. Essentially, ‘-no-parent’ is similar to ‘-I/~luzer/my-archive’, only it handles redirections in a more intelligent fashion.

Only the archive you are interested in will be downloaded.

Wget -r -no-parent You may rest assured that none of the references to /~his-girls-homepage/ or /~luzer/all-my-mpegs/ will be followed. Using it guarantees that you will never leave the existing hierarchy. The ‘-no-parent’ option (short ‘-np’) is useful in this case. disallowing ascent to the parent directory/directories. The simplest, and often very useful way of limiting directories is disallowing retrieval of the links that refer to the hierarchy above than the beginning directory, i.e. if you want to load all the files from /pub hierarchy except for /pub/worthless, specify ‘-I/pub -X/pub/worthless’. The same as with ‘-A’/‘-R’, these two options can be combined to get a better fine-tuning of downloading subdirectories.

if you do not want Wget to download things from /cgi-bin directory, specify ‘-X /cgi-bin’ on the command line. ‘-X’ option is exactly the reverse of ‘-I’-this is a list of directories excluded from the download.
