Question

Assume final String fname = "/dir1/dir2/fname.ext". I do not wish to parse the string recursively in order to create the directories if they do not exist, and only then write to a file. I wish to use the given string, fname, for creating the directories and file if each of which does not exist.

Answer 1

This is the code you are looking for:

File myFile = new File("/dir1/dir2/fname.ext");
myFile.getParentFile().mkdirs();
// do your writing being sure the parent directories exist.
