Simple Question, just not clear to me.

I've been looking over the Java docs and I have a basic question that I think will get me started in the right direction.

If I wanted to create a node that is a space in a specific location using a path how would I do this.

Path: /company home/Projects/Billing
New space name: timesheet

I know I use nodeService.createNode(), but the arguments aren't clear to me. 

Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi,

It's actually better to use the FileFolderService's create method

create

FileInfo create(NodeRef parentNodeRef, java.lang.String name,                QName typeQName) throws FileExistsException

    Create a file or folder; or any valid node of type derived from file or folder

    Parameters:
        parentNodeRef - the parent node. The parent must be a valid container.
        name - the name of the node
        typeQName - the type to create
    Returns:
        Returns the new node's file information
    Throws:
        FileExistsException

parentNodeRef = NodeRef of the Billing space
name = the name of the space you want to create
type = the QName for cm:folder

Cheers,
