I am using the FTPClient library from Apache and cannot figure out a simple way to create a new directory that is more than one level deep. Am I missing something?
Assuming the directory /tmp already exists on my remote host, the following command succeeds in creating /tmp/xxx
String path = "/tmp/xxx"; FTPClient ftpc = new FTPClient(); ... // establish connection and login ftpc.makeDirectory(path);
but the following fails:
String path = "/tmp/yyy/zzz"; FTPClient ftpc = new FTPClient(); ... // establish connection and login ftpc.makeDirectory(path);
In that latter case, even /tmp/yyy isn't created.
I know I can create /tmp/yyy and then create /tmp/yyy/zzz, but I can't figure out how to create directly /tmp/yyy/zzz.
Am I missing something obvious? Using mkd instead of makeDirectory didn't help.
Also, is it possible in one call to upload a file to /tmp/yyy/zzz/test.txt if the directory /tmp/yyy/zzz/ doesn't exist already?
