Thread: Creating a folder with subfolders

So I have been using mkdir() to make my folders, only problem is that it doesn't create subfolders.

I.e. if mkdir("c:\a\b\c\d") but if c:\a\b\c are not present it doesn't make d folder.

To circumvent this i made this code, it looks fine and runs fine but crashes at the end. No idea why though :/ Might have missed something silly.

Thanks!

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include <direct.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

    char file_loc[140] = "C:/a/b/c/d/";
    char tempfile_loc[140] = {' '};

    int counter = 0;

    do
    {
        while( file_loc[counter] != '/' )
        {
            tempfile_loc[counter] = file_loc[counter];
            counter++;
        }

        tempfile_loc[counter] = file_loc[counter];
        counter++;

        cout << tempfile_loc << endl;
        mkdir(tempfile_loc); // problem only makes one folder at a time



    } while (file_loc[counter+1] != ' ' );

    return 0;
}
