Example

The sample code below demonstrates how to use the method to create a folder on the connected Android device:

JavaScript, JScript

function Test()
{
  var fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager;
  var sFolder = "system/app/test";

  // Creates a folder and checks if it has been created successfully
  if (! fileSystemManager.CreateFolder(sFolder))
    Log.Error("Could not create the " + sFolder + " folder");
}

Python

def Test():
  fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager
  sFolder = "system/app/test"

  # Creates a folder and checks if it has been created successfully
  if not fileSystemManager.CreateFolder(sFolder):
    Log.Error("Could not create the " + sFolder + " folder")

VBScript

Sub Test
  Set fileSystemManager = Mobile.Device("MyDevice").FileSystemManager
  sFolder = "system/app/test"

  ' Creates a folder and checks if it has been created successfully
  If Not fileSystemManager.CreateFolder(sFolder) Then
    Log.Error("Could not create the " + sFolder + " folder")
  End If
End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure Test();
var fileSystemManager, sFolder;
begin
  fileSystemManager := Mobile.Device('MyDevice').FileSystemManager;
  sFolder := 'system/app/test';

  // Creates a folder and checks if it has been created successfully
  if not fileSystemManager.CreateFolder(sFolder) then
    Log.Error('Could not create the ' + sFolder + ' folder');
end;
