iwgen and the creation of directories ?

Hello,
I think I'm being a little niave but ........
I'm running an iwgen command like below

/iw/iw-home/bin/iwgen -t
/default/main/branch/WORKAREA/dirs/presentation/web_page.tpl
-r
/default/main/branch/WORKAREA/dir/dcr
/default/main/branch/WORKAREA/dir/NEW DIR/html file

The thing to note is that the html file to be generated is to live in a directory which does not exist!?
I quess my question is can iwgen force the creation of the direcory (a little bit like iwupdate?), if so how

thanks leec

Not sure if you ever got your question answered but ...
.../iwgen -t ... -r /default/main/branch/WORKAREA/dir/dcr /default/main/branch/WORKAREA/dir/NEW-DIR/html-file

.../WORKAREA/dir/dcr does not look like a legitimate path for a DCR - it is probably something like .../WORKAREA/templatedata/category/data-type/data/dcr - yes?

No - iwgen does not create directories for you - but if you're calling iwgen as a CLT, the same script should be able to make sure the directory exists ahead of time. If you're using Perl I recommend File:ath::mkpath().
