FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

mkdir_check($)

This method checks that the directory given to it doesnt exist and then creates it using the mkdir system call. The routine will throw an exception if it fails to create the directory.

mkdir_p_check($)

This method is exactly like mkdir_check but creates the whole hierarchy (you can give something like "foo/boo/bar" to it and it will create them all).

mkdir_p_check_file($)

This method is the same as mkdir_p_check except that it receives a file name instead of a directory name. It extracts the directory from the name and calls mkdir_p_check. This is a convenience method so that you won't have to do it yourself.

TEST($)
