Ada doesn't include mkdir as the existence of directories is OS and
not language specific. The same, BTW, goes for C or C++.
With most C or C++ compilers there comes a library that implements the
mkdir function. Most standard Ada compilers do not, instead relying on
a standard POSIX binding for OS specific functions (thus making the
program portable over environments) or a OS specific binding.
In this case you need to use the Win32 API binding. Documentation for
it is on-line with OA.
Jerry.

Hello,
I am just learning Ada and I have a question. I know a little C++ and
in C++ there is a command called mkdir, which will make a director on
the computer that you are using. I was wondering if anyone out there
knows of a command in Ada that does the same thing. I am using the
ObjectAda for Windows V7.1.105 (special edition) compiler. If anyone
can help me please respond to my email address.
Thanks,
Michael Dooley
