Hi,

I am using fatfs sdcard stack, how can i create file in a directory? can i use f_open function for this? In f_open function i just specify the name of the file like this:

f_open(&MyFile, 'STM32.TXT', FA_CREATE_ALWAYS | FA_WRITE)

How can i add the directory path?

You could I suppose RTFM, FatFs is reasonably well documented.

I'm pretty sure it won't create a fully qualified path, you need to make the directory tree before you can put a file there. You'd have to do it one node at a time using f_mkdir()

r_mkdir('/SOMEDIR');

f_open(&MyFile, '/SOMEDIR/SOMEFILE.TXT', FA_CREATE_ALWAYS | FA_WRITE)
