C# equivalent of Java's mkdirs()

Question

I am trying to convert a Java program to c#.

Is there a equivalent to Java's mkdirs() command which recursively makes folders?

Simply:

Directory.CreateDirectory(pathToDir)

This will create any and all directories specified in the given path. (Just like mkdirs)

See the documentation here:

Any and all directories specified in path are created, unless they already exist or unless some part of path is invalid

@jjnguy you'd typed more. I added the quote later. – Yuriy Faktorovich Mar 30 '11 at 05:31
I had typed up `Directory.Create()` and almost submitted that as an answer. But I decided to go and check the docs. That's where I lost most of my time. :) – jjnguy Mar 30 '11 at 05:33
