Hi all,
using C language we can read text files. we can read each and every character.
ch =fgetc(filepointer);
but i want to know how to read folders.
for ex: fopen("c:\one foldername", "r");
in out put i want print subfolders and files.
if any body know please help me...
thanks in advance.........
the <dirent.h> library has the following functions
int closedir(DIR *);
DIR *opendir(const char *);
struct dirent *readdir(DIR *);
int readdir_r(DIR *, struct dirent *, struct dirent **);
void rewinddir(DIR *);
void seekdir(DIR *, long int);
long int telldir(DIR *);http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/dirent.h.html
if you're confined to Windows-specific solutions, theres an implementation of this for Windows

if that's not acceptable for homework purposes, then maybe you can just get away with a system call like strcpy(myBigString, system("dir")); .
It would be best to let us know what O/S and compiler you are using so we don't have to guess, as jephthah was forced to do. They all have different ways to accomplish the task.
