Hi All,

still making my homebrew backup-program. Now I have tried to get a simple
thing to work for something like 5 hours. Following is a test routine which
does not work. It's idea is to create directory structure given in variable
SHak inside directory given by variable crtdir. Any ideas why it does not
work? I remember seeing something in help about directories in Gambas but I
think that should not affect absolute paths...



PUBLIC SUB Button2_Click()


DIM sHak AS String
DIM haks AS NEW String[300]
DIM hak2 AS String
DIM crtdir AS String
sHak = "/home/kari/ulkoiset/sdi1/debian_src/
ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gimp/"
crtdir = "/home/kari/backup_work/cdroot/"
  haks = Split(sHak, "/")
  FOR EACH hak2 IN haks


    crtdir = crtdir &/ hak2
    PRINT crtdir
    SHELL "mkdir  " & crtdir
    'PRINT hak2
    'PRINT crtdir
  NEXT
END



Best Regards
Kari Laine
