In this article, we would like to show you how to create a directory with a subdirectory in Java.

Directory/
  |
  +-- subirectory1/
          |
          +-- subdirectory2/

 

Practical example

In this example, we will create the following tree using mkdirs() method:

Directory/
  |
  +-- subirectory1/
          |
          +-- subdirectory2/

code example: 

import java.io.File;

public class Example {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        File myDirectory = new File("C:\\projects\\example\\Directory\\subdirectory1\\subdirectory2");

        if (!myDirectory.exists()) {
            if (myDirectory.mkdirs()) {
                System.out.println("New directory created succesfully.");
            } else {
                System.out.println("Couldn't create directory.");
            }
        } else {
            System.out.println("Directory already exists.");
        }
    }
}
