Questions about file system
i have questions about file system
the first one is how i can list all file in directory
i tried to do this but it lists directories only not files
Code:
void ListFiles(TCHAR szDirectory[])
{
WIN32_FIND_DATA findData;
HABDLE hfind;
BOOL bMoreFiles=TRUE;
hFind=FindFirstFile(szDirectory,&findData);
if(findData.dwFileAttributes ==FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE)//FILE
{
while(bMoreFiles)
{
wcout<<findData.cFileName;
bMoreFiles=FindNextFile(szDirectory,&findData);
}
}//if
else if(findData.dwFileAttributes ==FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTOR)Y //directory not file
ListFiles(findData.cFileName);//using recursion
else
return ;
}//ListFiles()
the second one is
let's say i want to show all images in directory
how can i know the type of the file (file extension)
thnx

thank you so much and i'm sorry to not to search in forums
but what about the second question it's important to me
Re: Questions about file system
Well you can either set lpFileName in FindFirstFile to *.jpg or you can ignore all files but imagefiles after reviewing the result in lpFindFileData. Ignoring the wrong files is probably what you want since I guess you would like to find jpeg, bmp, tif and so on as well.

Get Rid of FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE and use FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL.
