Creating a folder code

smurphy625

Hello Everyone I have a quick question about creating a folder that was deleted. I am able to capture the old file path and have been able to recreate the folder only if there are two folder such as /EAM/testing. I need help when there are more than two folders that exist such as /EAM/testing/documents Below is my code

String S = relationRecord.getRepeatingString(

     "dp_original_folder_paths",  i); //this is the file path I get

   String[] folderName = S.split("/");

try {
     String userName = "dmadmin";
   String userPassword = "xxxxxx";
  
   IDfClient client = DfClient.getLocalClient();
   IDfLoginInfo loginInfo = new DfLoginInfo();
   loginInfo.setUser(userName);
   loginInfo.setPassword(userPassword);
   loginInfo.setDomain("");

   IDfSession docbase_session = client.newSession(docbase,loginInfo);
   folderName[1] = "/" + folderName[1];
   IDfSysObject folder = null;
   folder = (IDfSysObject) docbase_session.newObject("dm_folder");
   folder.setObjectName(folderName[2]);
   System.out.println(folderName[1]);
   folder.link(folderName[1]);
   folder.save();
   if(docbase_session != null){
    System.out.println("successful create a new folder");

   }
   else {
    System.out.println("failed to create a folder");
   }
  }
  catch(Exception e){
   e.printStackTrace();
  }

The above code is fully working only when there are two folders.

I was wondering if anyone knew what the code would look like if there were three folders.

I know folder.setObjectName(folderName[3]);

I have tried adding the code

folder.link(folderName[2]);

folder.save();

But I get the error.

DfPathNotFoundException:: THREAD: http-bio-8080-exec-9; MSG: [DM_API_E_EXIST]error:

"Folder specified by /testfolders does not exist."; ERRORCODE: 100; NEXT: null

where /testfolders is the value for folderName[2];

Any help is appreciated very much!

Hello,

Say you have three level folders i.e, "/EAM/testing/Document". As you are able to do it for two levels folder i.e., "/EAM/testing".

Now, just append below logic to your code.

folderName[2]=folderName[1]+"/"+folderName[2];

IDfSysobject folder=null;

folder=(IDfSysobject)docbase_session.newObject("dm_folder");

folder.setObjectName(folderName[3]);

folder.link(folderName[2]);

folder.save();
