In order to create nested directories we can make use of the Files.createDirectories() that was added in Java 7.
Example:import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
public class JavaCreateDirectoryExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String nestedDirectories = "myDir1/myDir2/myDir3/myDir4";
String pathStr = "/Users/code2care/my-projects-22/java-examples/";
Path dirPathAndName = Paths.get(pathStr+nestedDirectories);
try {
Path path = Files.createDirectories(dirPathAndName);
System.out.println("Nested Directories created: " + path);
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("Error occurred while creating Directories!...");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Output:
Nested Directories created: /Users/code2care/my-projects-22/java-examples/myDir1/myDir2/myDir3/myDir4
