QDir mkpath

[yazwas]

Hello All,

I'm trying to create a directory structure using the following code, but it sometimes fails, I would like to know why?

QDir dir;
    bool ok = dir.mkpath(path);     //this function creates the path, with all its necessary parents;
 
    if(!ok)
    {
        //error message, could not create the required directory structure!
         QMessageBox::critical(this, tr("Error!"), tr("Error creating directory structure"));
        return;
    }

QDir dir;
    bool ok = dir.mkpath(path);     //this function creates the path, with all its necessary parents;

    if(!ok)
    {
        //error message, could not create the required directory structure!
         QMessageBox::critical(this, tr("Error!"), tr("Error creating directory structure"));
        return;
    }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

How can I get the reason for mkpath returning false, what is the function that I need to call to figure out what was the problem?

Thanks

Look at the value "path". I strongly think, your path is wrong/not well formated.
