sqInt dir_Create(char *pathString, sqInt pathStringLength)
Parms:
pathString directory path name to create in image encoding
pathStringLength length of name
return: return 1 for success, 0 to make primitive fail.
From: Interpreter, filePlugin
Why:
To create directory
Responsibility:
Create the directory entry if the path name encoded is correct and within file system rules.
Must ensure length of path does not violate some internal path length rule for the operating system
MacIntosh
os-9/OSXCarbon
clone of unix, but it works with Finder Aliases.
Cocoa:
TBD
iPhone
A bit more error checking and only allows UTF8 names.
Also the default permissions are set to the defaults, which may or may NOT? map to unix umask values?
Unix
check file path length, convert to system encoding, make directory with all rwx masked with umask
Windows
Convert to wide char, there is NO check for lengths, etc.
then call CreateDirectoryW
