How do I create Directory/folder?
Once I have tested System.getProperty("user.home");
I have to create a directory (directory name "new folder" ) if and only if new folder does not exist.

In Java, the mkdir() function is used to create a new directory. This method takes the abstract pathname as a parameter and is defined in the Java File class. mkdir() returns true if the directory is created successfully; else, it returns false.
Create a New Directory ( mkdir ) The first step in creating a new directory is to navigate to the directory that you would like to be the parent directory to this new directory using cd . Then, use the command mkdir followed by the name you would like to give the new directory (e.g. mkdir directory-name ).
A file system structure containing files and other directories is called directories in java, which are being operated by the static methods in the java. nio. file. files class along with other types of files, and a new directory is created in java using Files.
new File("/path/directory").mkdirs(); Here "directory" is the name of the directory you want to create/exist.

After ~7 year, I will update it to better approach which is suggested by Bozho.
File theDir = new File("/path/directory"); if (!theDir.exists()){ theDir.mkdirs(); } If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
