RE: [Dev-C++] list files in a directory

[P.D. v. Z. <pa...@my...>]

Hi,

It depends on what OS you want it to work on. For Windows you can use
the Win32 API functions FindFirstFile/FindNextFile/FindClose for
example. I believe Boost also has a library for enumerating files and
directories (www.boost.org) ... not sure though. I couldn't say anything
about other platforms though, never had to enumerate files/directories
on those (yet) :)

Oh, and as for an example... this should do the trick on Win32 (off the
top of my head, didn't check the specifics of the API calls, nor did I
test the code):

WIN32_FIND_DATA wfd;
HANDLE hFind = FindFirstFile("*.*", &wfd);
if (hFind == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
    return;

do
{
    MessageBox(NULL, wfd.cFileName, "Found file or directory",
MB_ICONINFORMATION);
} while (FindNextFile(hFind, &wfd));

FindClose(hFind);


Hope this helped :)

Hello!

Where can I find information about listing files? (C/C++ example)
