C# DirectoryInfo

Exposes instance methods for creating, moving, and enumerating through directories and subdirectories. This class cannot be inherited.

Here's a breakdown of CSharpProgram function.
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@"c:\MyDir");	This code creates a DirectoryInfo object for the directory path "C:\MyDir". The object provides methods and properties to manage and retrieve information about the directory.
if (di.Exists) { Console.WriteLine("That path exists already."); return; }	This code checks if the directory specified by di ("C:\MyDir") already exists using di.Exists. If it does, it prints a message "That path exists already." and exits the method or program using return.
di.Create(); Console.WriteLine("The directory was created successfully.");	This code creates the directory specified by di ("C:\MyDir") using di.Create(). After successful creation, it prints a confirmation message to the console.
di.Delete(); Console.WriteLine("The directory was deleted successfully.")	This code creates the directory specified by di ("C:\MyDir") using di.Create(). After successful creation, it prints a confirmation message to the console.

public class CSharpProgram

{

public static void Main(string[] args)

{

// Specify the directories you want to manipulate.

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@"c:\MyDir");

try

{

// Determine whether the directory exists.

if (di.Exists)

{

// Indicate that the directory already exists.

Console.WriteLine("That path exists already.");

return;

}

// Try to create the directory.

di.Create();

Console.WriteLine("The directory was created successfully.");

// Delete the directory.

di.Delete();

Console.WriteLine("The directory was deleted successfully.");

}

catch (Exception e)

{

Console.WriteLine("The process failed: {0}", e.ToString());

}

finally {}

}
