PR_MkDir
========
Creates a directory with a specified name and access mode.
Syntax
------
.. code::
#include <prio.h>
PRStatus PR_MkDir(
const char *name,
PRIntn mode);
Parameters
~~~~~~~~~~
The function has the following parameters:
``name``
The name of the directory to be created. All the path components up
to but not including the leaf component must already exist.
``mode``
The access permission bits of the file mode of the new directory if
the file is created when ``PR_CREATE_FILE`` is on.
Caveat: The mode parameter is currently applicable only on Unix

- :ref:`00100`. Search by owner.
- :ref:`00040`. Read by group.

- If unsuccessful, ``PR_FAILURE``. The actual reason can be retrieved
via :ref:`PR_GetError`.
Description
