check if a file path is useable


  • Subject: check if a file path is useable

Hello,

I am writing a program where I need to be able to read/write a file to a specific directory. I have been able to check if a file is readable and writable using the access() function. The problem is that I want to make it so that if the file does not already exists I can see if it can be created. I am stuck here, since I'm not sure of an easy way to get this information. Is there a single method to do all this, and if not how can I create a method to do all of this?

Thanks,
Mitchell Livingston
