hi,

i have this problem where i would like to create a path and directories automatically. my script is :

use strict;
use lib "./Lib";
use Main;


my $control = Main->new();


print "finished \n";
[download]

so when i initialize Main, the sub that checks if there is a path to my specific variable is started. like :

package Main;
use strict;
use File::Path qw(make_path remove_tree);

##################################################
sub new {
##################################################

my ($class)=@_;

craete_path();

my $hash = {};

bless ($hash,$class);

}



sub create_path {

# here it first checks if the path  already exists or not, and if ther
+e is no path, then it creates a path (with all necessary directory's)
+.

}

1;
[download]

so my question is : do people tend to do it like this or is there some other more practical/elegant way to do it ?

thanks
