How to delete file after REST response [duplicate]

Answer 1

I did something like this recently in rest service development using jersey

@GET
@Produces("application/zip")
@Path("/export")
public Response exportRuleSet(@QueryParam("ids") final List ids) {

    try {
        final File exportFile = serviceClass.method(ruleSetIds);

        final InputStream responseStream = new FileInputStream(exportFile);


        StreamingOutput output = new StreamingOutput() {
            @Override
            public void write(OutputStream out) throws IOException, WebApplicationException {  
                int length;
                byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
                while((length = responseStream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
                    out.write(buffer, 0, length);
                }
                out.flush();
                responseStream.close();
               boolean isDeleted = exportFile.delete();
                log.info(exportFile.getCanonicalPath()+":File is deleted:"+ isDeleted);                 
            }   
        };
        return Response.ok(output).header("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=rulset-" + exportFile.getName()).build();
    }
