Recursive mkdir() and chmod()?

chmod, mkdir, permissions, php

Solution

Just tested on gentoo linux with PHP 5.2.12: They all have the same permissions.

soulmerge@shark-g:~$ php -a
Interactive shell

php > mkdir('asd/def/ghi', 0700, 1);
php > ^C
soulmerge@shark-g:~$ ls -hal asd
total 12K
drwx------  3 soulmerge soulmerge 4.0K 2010-01-12 10:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 79 soulmerge soulmerge 4.0K 2010-01-12 10:32 ..
drwx------  3 soulmerge soulmerge 4.0K 2010-01-12 10:32 def

Problem

When using `mkdir()` with the recursive flag set to true do all the created directories get the specified chmod or just the last one? For example: ``` mkdir('/doesnotExist1/doesnotExist2/doesnotExist3/', 0755, true); ``` Will the newly created directories `/doesnotExist1/` and `/doesnotExist1/doesnotExist2/` also get the same chmod as `/doesnotExist1/doesnotExist2/doesnotExist3/` = 0755? If not, is there any way to force the above behavior? I would test this myself, but I don't have access to a *nix box ATM.
