Deleting an atatchment after sending mail

[modestmj]

Hello everyone..

I'm trying to forward a PDF with a mail and also delete it from the tomcat/bin folder after sending it as it gets generated in that folder. But the problem is if I try to use the delete method, the file is deleted even before the mail is sent. So I was hoping if anyone could help me on this.

 File[] pdfFile = {DownloadProfile.generateProfile(profileId, "pdf", request, response)};
                     
            //Format Subject:
            String subject = ContentUtil.get("com/inikah/template/common-subject.txt");
    		subject = subject.replace("[$mail-context$]", "Please Check This Pdf");
    		subject = subject.replace("[$profile-name$]", profile.getProfileName());
    		subject = subject.replace("[$profile-code$]", profile.getProfileCode());
    				
    		//Format Body:
    		String body = ContentUtil.get("com/inikah/template/profile/profile-attachment.html");
    		body = body.replace("[$contact-person$]", "Sr/Br");
    		body = body.replace("[$profile-name$]", profile.getProfileName());
    		body = body.replace("[$profile-code$]", profile.getProfileCode());
    		
    		for (String toAddress: email) {
                if (Validator.isNotNull(toAddress)) MailUtil.sendMail(toAddress, subject, body, pdfFile);
            }
    		
    		pdfFile[0].delete();
