Javahl mkdir use

Hi again!

I'm trying to integrate Subversion with the project management software of one of our clients.

One of the actions to implement is to create a template of directories inside the repository, with a predefined layout (to all new projects). This is done when a project begins.

So, I am using mkdir (SVNClient, javahl). If I try to create a given directory, with parent directories that don't exist, an exception is thrown. I guess this is normal behaviour of function.

But browsing the trunk I noticed that is being implemented the complementary behaviour: create automatically all parent directories.

Until 1.5 arrives I have to implement this behaviour by hand.

Given a list of paths, for example:

Trunk/App1/countrycode/organization/app/module

Trunk/doc/countrycode/organization/app/module

Trunk/dist/jars

I would have to create :

-Trunk

-Trunk/App1

-Trunk/App1/countrycode

-Trunk/App1/countrycode/organization

...and so on

Is there another way more optimal than checking if a directory exists and create if not?

If there is not such way, how can I ask if a directory exists in the repository (especifying an url)?

Thanks a lot,

Xoan
