RE: [Mingw-users] problem with reading dirs (_findfirst())

[Anand, V. R <vai...@bo...>]

I get errors as well. The program finds the first two files (which are
always "." and ".."), then dies with a segmentation violation. Until a
solution can be found, perhaps you should use the Win32 API functions
directly instead, as below:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>

int main()
{
HANDLE handle=3D0;
WIN32_FIND_DATA s;

handle =3D FindFirstFile( "*.*", &s );
printf( "handle =3D %d name=3D%s size=3D<%d %d>\n", handle,s.cFileName,
	s.nFileSizeHigh,s.nFileSizeLow );

while(FindNextFile(handle, &s)){
  printf("name=3D%s size=3D<%d %d>\n",
s.cFileName,s.nFileSizeHigh,s.nFileSizeLow);
}
FindClose(handle);

system("pause");
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------
This seems to work.

Regards,
Anand

Subject: [Mingw-users] problem with reading dirs (_findfirst())


Hi,
This is my first post here, and I hope this isn't off-topic.

I'm developing under DevCpp 4.9.8, in straight C, and have a problem
reading directories. I tryed to use the _findfirst() function provided
in the Mingw header "io.h" (Revision: 1.6, Date: 2002/11/12).

I'm just trying to read the files in a directory, but the simpliest code
below gives incoherent results. Do I miss something ? Should I use
another function?

-------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <io.h>

int main()
{
int handle;
struct _finddata_t s;

handle =3D _findfirst( "*.*", &s );
printf( "handle =3D %d\n", handle );

handle =3D _findnext( handle, &s );
printf( "handle =3D %d\n", handle );

system("pause");
}
