Creating folder in Windows/Linux path in Background mode

SAPSeeker — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 18:27:31 GMT

Hello Expert's,

I have a requirement to create a folder/directory in a shared path through background mode. This should work for both Windows and Linux environment, where our ECC servers resides in both type of servers.

Can someone guide me with any Code/BAPI's/Function Modules for achieving this ?

Thanks and Regards,

Gaurav.

Thanks Michael.

I got code for creating folder in Unix/Linux environment. But still unable to get a clear picture on creating folders through Windows environment.

Hi Gaurav,

the mechanism mentioned by Michael works under Windows and Unix. (You may just have to figure out, on which platform you are running, and then use different commands as needed.)

Best Regards, Ulrich

Hello Ulrich,

Below code is working fine for creating folder in Unix/Linux environment. But not sure how to do that in Windows environment. Can you please explain how to achieve it ?

	lv_command(9)	= 'mkdir -p '.
	lv_command+9(55) = lv_pathextern.

CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD lv_command.

Thanks,

Gaurav.

Hi Gaurav,

'-p' is not supported on Windows (and not necessary, as the Windows mkdir command already creates non-existing parent directories automatically).

So just use 'mkdir '.
