Clearning the embedded server, or partition

[Paul Edwards <Pa...@hyro.com>]

Guys,

Another probably trivial question, which I can't seem to find an easy answer to.

I now have the embedded server starting up etc. I can add loads of data via the ldifreader. However when I rerun the test, all the data is still present, so it fails. How does one easily clear the partition? 

I tried doing:
                directoryService.removePartition(partition);
		partition.destroy();
		log.debug("Deleted partition: " + partition.getSuffix());

at the end of the run, but that doesn't clean. Tried to delete the partition and then recreate, also doesn't do it. Not quite sure what I'm doing wrong.

I suppose I could just write some java to remove the server-work directory, but that doesn't seem a very clean solution to me.

Thanks

Destroying a partition using 'directoryService' will not delete the data.

AFAIK this is the *only* way to clean/remove the partition data
