[gentoo-user] [OT] mkdir in a C program?

[gentoo-user] [OT] mkdir in a C program?

[Denis]

Does anyone know if a directory can be created from inside a C program
and how that is done?  Suppose I run the code from my own directory
/home/mydir, and I want the code to create a directory
/home/mydir/mydata, where data is to be written, what would the format
for such a command be?  Also, when you write files to
/home/mydir/mydata, do i put in something like "./mydata/filename" as
the filename to open/write?

Many thanks!
Denis

Take a look on system function, for example system("mkdir /home/mydir");

Cheers!

I found this :

#include<sys/stat.h>

int main(int argc,char **argv){
if (argc < 2) exit(1);
mkdir(argv[1],0777);
return 0;
}

I hope that can help you :D

Here's the simple program that demonstrates usage that's good enough for me:

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

int main ()
{

  mkdir("./mydata", 0777);

  return 0;

}

Yea, it should be "Which one did you use?" :-)
