I need to delete all compiled data:

• directories called build,
• directories called obj,
• *.so files.

I wrote a command

find \( -name build -o -name obj -o -name *.so \) -exec rm -rf {} \; 

that goes through all the directories recursively and deletes all I need.

Why do I have such an output at the end? Maybe I should write a different command.

find: `./3/obj': No such file or directory find: `./3/build': No such file or directory find: `./1/obj': No such file or directory find: `./1/build': No such file or directory find: `./2/obj': No such file or directory find: `./2/build': No such file or directory 

Update #1.

My solution.

find . -regextype posix-egrep -regex ".*/(obj|build|.+\.so)" -prune -exec rm -rf {} + 

+ vs ; in the -exec command
