Example (PHP)

 $resourceService->DeleteResource($resourceID);

This example deletes a folder and all items beneath it:

 $resourceID = new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://Maps/");
 $resourceService->DeleteResource($resourceID);

 $resourceID = new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://");
 $resourceService->DeleteResource($resourceID);
