Operating Systems Supported |
|
Requires Windows NT 3.5(1) or later; Requires Windows 95 or later |
- lpTemplateDirectory
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the path of the directory to use as a template when creating the new directory.
- lpNewDirectory
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the path of the directory to be created.
- lpSecurityAttributes
Pointer to a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES structure that determines whether the returned handle can be inherited by child processes. If lpSecurityAttributes is NULL, the handle cannot be inherited.
Windows NT: The lpSecurityDescriptor member of the structure specifies a security descriptor for the new directory. If lpSecurityAttributes is NULL, the directory gets a default security descriptor. The target file system must support security on files and directories for this parameter to have an effect.
Windows 95: The lpSecurityDescriptor member of the structure is ignored. |
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. |
