Delete File(s) on Package Uninstall

Permalink
Hello,

Is there a way to function that runs when you package is uninstalled?
I need to delete some files off the server when people uninstall my package.

In the package class there is an uninstall function. See:

I am just guessing, but maybe in your package controller.php you could do something like:
public function uninstall() {
        parent::uninstall();
        // Delete files
        unlink('path/to/file.txt');
    }

I am an old procedure oriented programmer that is still getting the hang of OOP. Any C5 OOP experts care to comment?
