Description

xfce_mkdirhier ()

gboolean            xfce_mkdirhier                      (const gchar *whole_path,
                                                         gulong mode,
                                                         GError **error);

Creates the specified directory whole_path, but unlike the mkdir() function from the standard C library, if any of the parent directories of the whole_path do not exists, they are created as well.

If the directory specified by whole_path already exists, this function performs no operation and simply returns TRUE.

`whole_path` :	path to the directory to create.
`error` :	location where to store GError object to, error are returned in the `G_FILE_ERROR` domain.
Returns :	`TRUE` on success, else `FALSE`.

Since 4.2
