See [My answer](https://stackoverflow.com/a/50085474/8524922). No need for libraries. The standard cross-platform library does that already. — Beyondo, Apr 29 '18 at 16:38

Use boost library as

boost::filesystem::create_directory(path);

To use boost, you have to add boost library and use this header for filesystem

#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>

You have to install boost library first, to include that header. – Mesar ali Apr 29 '18 at 10:43
