class CreateDirectory 

{

 public static void main(String args[])

  {

  try{

  String strDirectoy ="test";

  String strManyDirectories="dir1/dir2/dir3";



  // Create one directory

  boolean success = (

  new File(strDirectoy)).mkdir();

  if (success) {

  System.out.println("Directory: " 

   + strDirectoy + " created");

  }  

  // Create multiple directories

  success = (new File(strManyDirectories)).mkdirs();

  if (success) {

  System.out.println("Directories: " 

   + strManyDirectories + " created");

  }



  }catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any

  System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());

  }
