Folder creation from inline code?
-
Hi, Just wondering if anyone can point me to a C++ function or run-time library call that I can use to create a new folder like this: NewFolder("C:\\Engineering Data\\Diagnostic Data\\2004_10_15"); I did find SHFileOperations but that seems to be used for deleting, renaming or moving files. I just need to create a new folder under an already existing folder. The higher folder "Diagnostic Data" as used above will always exist if that matters. Thanks, Robert

How about: CreateDirectory() http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/fileio/base/createdirectory.asp[^] Neville Franks, Author of ED for Windows www.getsoft.com and Surfulater www.surfulater.com "Save what you Surf"

CreateDirectory("C:\\Engineering Data\\Diagnostic Data\\2004_10_15") will fail if "C:\\Engineering Data\\Diagnostic Data\\" does not exist.

CreateDirectory("C:\\Engineering Data\\Diagnostic Data\\2004_10_15") will fail if "C:\\Engineering Data\\Diagnostic Data\\" does not exist.

Correct but did you read the initial post? I just need to create a new folder under an already existing folder. The higher folder "Diagnostic Data" as used above will always exist if that matters.

If you don't mind the OS restriction, use
