How to create new constructor? - SirNoobHack - Sep 25, 2016

Code 
My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("adasd")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("afasfas")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("dsgdsf")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("adasdsasd")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("adaaaf")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("asdadassd")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("gdfsgdfg")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("adasfs")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("afafssaf")

        My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("afsafgsd")

How can I shorten the class length if you understand what I mean.
Dim CreateD() = My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory(Of String) was the best I could think of but it was incorrect. I don't even know what it's called that I'm trying to do :/
So to create a new directory I would only have to type:
CreateD(folderName)

Any sort of help would be GREATLY appreciated! 😉

Do you mean something like this OP?

Code 
Public Sub CreateDirectory(ByVal directory As String)

        Try

            My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory(directory)

        Catch ex As Exception

            Console.WriteLine("Exception thrown while trying to create a directory. Exception message " + ex.Message)

        End Try

    End Sub

Then you would just call it like this:

Code 
CreateDirectory("C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Test\")

I thought about it but it wasn't really what I wanted, I must've thought that you could do what I've imagined in some way. Creating a method to make it is the best solution though, cheers mate!

Code 
Public Sub CreateDirectory(ParamArray path As String())

    Array.ForEach(path, Sub(p) If Not Directory.Exists(p) Then Directory.CreateDirectory(p))

End Sub

ParamArrays are your friend.

Code 
CreateDirectory("C:\Foo1")

CreateDirectory("C:\Foo1", "C:\Foo2")

CreateDirectory("C:\Foo1", "C:\Foo2", "C:\Foo3")
