Problem statement

The task is to create directory along with required nonexistent directories.

Creating directory along with required nonexistent parent directories

To create directory along with required nonexistent directory, we use mkdirs() method which is a predefined method of "File" class, it is called with the file object which is being initialized with the directories (along with the path) and returns a Boolean value – "true" if directories created successfully, otherwise it returns "false".

Package to use: import java.io.*;

Syntax

// create File object with directories
File dirs = new File("C://course//semester1//programming//java");

//method call to create directories
dirs.mkdirs();

Output:
true
