MkDir Event

Fires when the OS needs to create a directory.

Syntax

type TMkDirEvent = procedure (
  Sender: TObject;
  const Path: String;
  Mode: Integer;
  var Result: Integer
) of Object;

property OnMkDir: TMkDirEvent read FOnMkDir write FOnMkDir;

Remarks

This event fires when the OS needs to create a directory, referenced as Path.

The Mode parameter is a combination of bit flags.

Windows: Mode includes 0x4000 (S_IFDIR) to indicate that the entry is a directory, and may include 0x80 (S_IWUSR) to indicate that the directory must not have its ReadOnly attribute set. If 0x80 flag is not set, the event handler must set ReadOnly attribute for a newly created directory.

Linux: Mode includes permission bits and may include additional bits depending on the OS.

The ResultCode parameter will always be 0 when the event is fired. If the event cannot be handled in a "successful" manner for some reason (e.g., a resource isn't available, security checks failed, etc.), set it to a negative error code value (e.g. -ENOENT to indicate that the file does not exist) to report an appropriate error. Please refer to the Error Reporting and Handling topic for more information.
