Function Documentation

void mkdir_r	(	const char *	dir,
		mode_t	mode
	)

Creates a directory with the given path. This will create directories to satisfy the full path if necessary.

e.g. mkdir_r("/a/b/c", S_IRWXU), supposing none of a b or c exists, will create a, then a/b, then a/b/c.

Parameters:

	dir	is the path of the directory to be created. This may be relative or absolute.
	mode	is a permission setting to fix on the new directory(s). e.g. S_IRWXU

		char **	file
	)

Parameters:

	file	is an output parameter, set to point to the beginning of the filename component of path. This must not be NULL.
