Help Creating a Folder

I'm a novice programmer who uses MetroWerks CodeWarrior. My current project calls for me to create a folder through the console. I've tried stdlib.h's system function (system ("md directory")), but this does not seem to work (most likely because of CodeWarrior). Is there another way? Thanks in advance!

::Assuming Windows Platform::

CreateDirectory("C:\\MyNewFolder",NULL);

And include windows.h

#include <direct.h> and you can use int _mkdir(const char *pathname);

Sooo...
_mkdir("C:\\My Folder");

You can check up here: http://www.digitalmars.com/rtl/direct.html#_mkdir for extended information. Best of all, its portable.

Where do I find direct.h (and the .cpp for the matter)? It doesn't seem to be part of my standard library.

Yup...and you know what??? There is no standard way to create a directory...

So use a compiler supplied method (Eibro's suggestion works on DigitalMars)....or if you are working on windows, use an API call like I suggested

Hmm, the way I suggested also works under VC++ 6... and as the website says "DOS Windows 3.x Phar Lap DOSX Win32"

I figured that would mean all Win32 compilers would have direct.h... ah well.
