MAKE DIRECTORY VC++

[Chad]

Hello people. Im trying to make a directory using ms vc++

Ive been used to Borland and normally id do this..

#include <dir.h>

void main()
{
mkdir("c:\\directory");
return 0;
}

Nice an simple, BUT when I do this in VC++ it tells me that dir.h
doesnt exist! So what do i use?

Thankyou!!

Non-standard header.

void main()

Non-standard return value for 'main'.

{
mkdir("c:\\directory");
return 0;
}

Nice an simple, BUT when I do this in VC++ it tells me that dir.h
doesnt exist! So what do i use?

What Alf was trying to say is that you are asking about functionality that
is not in the language standard, which means, it can vary by platform,
compiler version, or, as you found out, by compiler manufacturer.

I'd suggest a visit to the f--ing docs. How can usenet be easier than
searching the docs?
