Name
MkDir Procedure
Syntax
procedure MkDir(const Directory: string)
Description
Call MkDir
to create a directory. If the directory
cannot be created, Delphi reports an I/O error using the Windows
error code, such as Error_Already_Exists
if the
directory already exists.
You can include or omit a trailing backslash character in the directory name.
MkDir
is not a real procedure.
Example
// Create a directory, but only if it does not already exist. procedure MakeDirectory(const Directory: string); var Search: TSearchRec; begin if FindFirst(Directory, faDirectory, Search) = 0 then FindClose(Search) else MkDir(Directory); end;
