What's to tute?

char mynewdirectory[] = "c:\\this\\that\\theother";
if(_mkdir(mynewdirectory) == 0)
{
puts("Whoopee!");
}
else
{
fputs("Oh.\n", stderr);
}

I just learned that _mkdir is part of C runtime library.
(this is the first time I heard of)

is there a book dedicated for CRT?

Another question. Where did you learn existence of _mkdir?
has _mkdir been existed since dos? I'm trying to
find out which books I should look for where from.

If you want to use win32, the function is called CreateDirectory. All these
functions are documented in msdn.microsoft.com (easiest to get there using
google msdn createdirectory). C runtime functions (at least, as implemented
by MS) are described in there too.

You can choose to use either C or win32 file functions, the latter however
tend to be more complex than their C counterparts. Win32 might be necessary
though if you want to avoid C libraries for any reason.

So, is msdn the only source of information?
