static void DeleteBlobsAndSnapshots(Uri blobEndpoint, string accountName, string accountKey)
{
CloudBlobClient blobClient = new CloudBlobClient(blobEndpoint, new StorageCredentialsAccountAndKey(accountName, accountKey));
//Get a reference to the container.
CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.GetContainerReference("mycontainer");
//Indicate that any snapshots should be deleted.
BlobRequestOptions options = new BlobRequestOptions();
options.DeleteSnapshotsOption = DeleteSnapshotsOption.IncludeSnapshots;
//Specify a flat blob listing, so that only CloudBlob objects will be returned.
//The Delete method exists only on CloudBlob, not on IListBlobItem.
options.UseFlatBlobListing = true;
//Enumerate through the blobs in the container, deleting both blobs and their snapshots.
