Create all the subdirectories for a new folder

Create all the subdirectories for a new folder

The System.IO.Directory class exposes a CreateDirectory method that, as its name suggests, can create a subdirectory. However, this method is even more powerful than it appears at a first glance, in that it can even create all the intermediate subdirectories, if necessary. In other words, the following statement:

System.IoDirectory.CreateDirectory("C:MyAppMySubDirData")

creates both the C:MyApp and the C:MyAppMySubDir directories, if they don’t exist already, before creating the Data folder.
