[EGL] Create a folder [message #989885]

Hello,

[%
	for (c in Package.all()) {%]
    	[%=c.name%]; 
    	
[%}%]

I want to create a new folder for each Package in my project, but I can't find how to do it using EGL.

For example, if I have the packages: Color and Weight. I want to have a folder ../src/Color and a folder ../src/Weight.

Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance.

PS: And it's being hard for me to find info about EGL and its operations. If you could point me to manuals or documentation about it would be appreciated.

Hi Patricia,

In EGL, an appropriate folder structure should be created automatically to accommodate the generated files. For example, if you try to generate c:/foo/bar/something.txt, the foo and bar folders will be created automatically if they don't exist. If you need to explicitly create directories, I'd suggest creating a Java tool [1] that provides this functionality and calling it from EGL. The definitive EGL reference is Chapter 7 of the Epsilon book [2], however, as EGL builds on top of EOL I'd suggest going through Chapter 3 first.

Cheers,
Dimitris
