# Example: mkdir

The following example uses mkdir to create a new directory, xyz. It then moves to the new directory.

        #ifdef unix
            char new_dir[] = "/tmp/xyz";
        #else
            char new_dir[] = "C:\\xyz";
        #endif

        // Create a directory under root called xyz and make it the current dir

        if (mkdir(new_dir)) {
            lr_output_message ("Create directory %s failed", new_dir);
            return -1;
        }
        else
             lr_output_message ("Created new directory %s", new_dir);

        if (chdir(new_dir)) {
            lr_output_message ("Unable to change to dir %s", new_dir);
            return -1;
         }
        else
            lr_output_message ("Changed to new dir %s", new_dir);

        return 0;

    Example: Output:
    Action.c(16): Created new directory C:\xyz
    Action.c(24): Changed to new dir C:\xyz
