How program to clear a basket?

The author: OlegGG
The initial link: - - -

In shell32.dll there is function SHEmptyRecycleBin.
Example:

#include <Shellapi.h> 

if (SUCCEEDED (SHEmptyRecycleBin (NULL, NULL, SHERB_NOCONFIRMATION + SHERB_NOPROGRESSUI + SHERB_NOSOUND)) 
        { 
        ShowMessage ("OK"); 
        }
else 
        { 
        ShowMessage ("ERR"); 
        }

The first function argument - HWND a window to which will posess all dialogues caused by function (it can be equal NULL).
The second - a disk on which will be cleared a basket (it can be equal NULL).
The third - flags:
SHERB_NOCONFIRMATION - Not to confirm,
SHERB_NOPROGRESSUI - Not to show a window with прогрессбаром,
SHERB_NOSOUND - Not to notify a sound on the operation termination.
