Hi,

In my app I am using ASTreeView control and ASContextMenu.
In the context Menu I have the menu Items ADD,EDIT,DELELTE.

I am adding a folder it is successfully added to treeview and saved into database table.

Now my requirent is when successfully saved into database I have to create that folder with the name in my local machine "D:\ROOT".

For example if I add a folder named "HONEY" by Treeview Context menu, it will have added successfully in the database and I get return value "1" for successful insertion, now based on return val =1, I have to create the HONEY folder into D:ROOT(i.e D:\ROOT\HONEY\)

How can I solve this one,
If you know help me,

Thanks & Regards,
Honey

The OP added:

i solved that one by following

string MainRootFolder =@"D:\ROOT";

string newPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(MainRootFolder, 
obj.FName);

(In obj.Fname i am getting created folder name, ex:Honey)

System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(newPath);

but this is not my full requirement,
if i add sub Folder named BEE to HONEY Folder, according to the above code the new folder is adding in the D:\ROOT\BEE but i want like this D:\ROOT\HONEY\BEE
How i can solve this
If u know help me..

Solution 1

Use the Directory.CreateDirectory(string)[^] method - you build the path from "D:\ROOT" and the name you saved to the database.

"if i add sub Folder named BEE to HONEY Folder, according to the above code the new folder is adding in the D:\ROOT\BEE but i want like this D:\ROOT\HONEY\BEE
How i can solve this"

Simple: just call System.IO.Path.Combine each time you need to add the folder:

MIDL

string MainRootFolder =@"D:\ROOT";
string newPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(MainRootFolder, obj.FName);
newPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(newPath, "BEE");

how i can add that? it will goes to first ROOT, later Honey later Bee,,
if i have more how it is possible to go those parentes folders,
help me.

Without knowing a lot more about your code than I want to, perhaps if you used a loop, adding each folder name on as you go... (Hint, hint)

davfeu 7-Feb-11 4:22am

string MainRootFolder =@"D:\ROOT";
string newPath = System.IO.Path.Combine(MainRootFolder, obj.FName, "BEE")

Wouldn't this be enough?

OriginalGriff 7-Feb-11 4:27am

Yes, but that only works for up to four strings. Since I don't know how many he has, I figured using two would give him the idea of using a loop. Perhaps that hasn't occurred, though... :sigh:

k tq i solved that using loop and capturing the parent node names
