Create a Directory in C++

Posted by Faisal [send private reply] at June 01, 2002, 02:22:26 PM

How do I create a Directory in C++? I went to MSDN and they showed something like Directory::CreateDirectory("c:\\somefolder"); but I couldn't find the header..

#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>

int mkdir (const char *location, mode_t mode);
...oh wait

It's okay, I already found a solution.

#include <direct.h>

_mkdir("c:\\watever");

Thanks anyway

I wish everything would just switch to the POSIX (or Single UNIX, which is even better). That would make writing cross-platform programs easier for everyone (write for Single UNIX/POSIX and have it run on everything from AIX to XENIX!)
