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!

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;

}
