If it is empty, why would you want to empty it?

If you meant deallocate segments/extents, no.

Michel,i belive it will freeup used EXTENTS.Cant it be called deallocate ? (Database level, not OS level)

select TABLESPACE_NAME, TOTAL_EXTENTS, TOTAL_BLOCKS, USED_EXTENTS, USED_BLOCKS, FREE_EXTENTS, FREE_BLOCKS from v$sort_segment
TABLESPACE_NAME                 TOTAL_EXTENTS TOTAL_BLOCKS USED_EXTENTS USED_BLOCKS FREE_EXTENTS FREE_BLOCKS
------------------------------- ------------- ------------ ------------ ----------- ------------ -----------
TEMP                                       19         2432            0           0           19        2432

It logically frees the extents not physically in files then it has not to reallocate them if it needs it.
