[haXe] Checking/creating directory

[Aaron Fay]

Hi list,

I am fiddling around with a piece of code that checks for the existence 
of a directory, and if not present, creates it (in XP).  The issue is 
when I create the folder:

   
    public function makeFolder(obj:Dynamic){
        //return neko.FileSystem.createDirectory(obj.folder);
        try {
           neko.FileSystem.createDirectory(obj.folder);
        } catch( msg : String ) {
           trace("Error message : " + msg );
           return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

When I call the function, it creates the folder, but the console displays:

 App.hx:32: Error message : std at sys_file_type

I've looked around, but I can't figure out what it means.  The script 
creates the folder, but throws an error...

Any ideas?
Thanks, Aaron
