gFileMakeDirectoryWithParents: gFileMakeDirectoryWithParents

Description

Creates a directory and any parent directories that may not exist similar to 'mkdir -p'. If the file system does not support creating directories, this function will fail, setting error to G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

Usage

gFileMakeDirectoryWithParents(object, cancellable = NULL, .errwarn = TRUE)

Arguments

object
input GFile.
cancellable
optional GCancellable object, NULL to ignore.
.errwarn
Whether to issue a warning on error or fail silently

Value

A list containing the following elements:
retval
[logical] TRUE if all directories have been successfully created, FALSE otherwise.
error
a GError, or NULL

Details

For a local GFile the newly created directories will have the default (current) ownership and permissions of the current process. If cancellable is not NULL, then the operation can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned. Since 2.18
