Thread: directory listing

i have the follwing code to list the files in a directory.........but i need the name of the files which doesnt have any extensions
for e.g.
if my directory containts the following files:
a
gg
1.txt
code.c

i need only "a" and "gg"

this is "C" in linux

Code:

chdir(dir);
    while((entry = readdir(dp)) != NULL) {
        
       lstat(entry->d_name,&statbuf);
       
 if(S_ISDIR(statbuf.st_mode)) {
            
            if(strcmp(".",entry->d_name) == 0 || 
                strcmp("..",entry->d_name) == 0)
                continue;
            printf("%*s%s/\n",depth,"",entry->d_name);
            printdir(entry->d_name,depth+4);
        }
        else
          printf("%s\n",entry->d_name);

thanx

use code tags to make your code readable. Im sure every peice of code you have seen its formated correctly.

Something like this:

Code:

if (strchr (entry->d_name, '.') == NULL)
    printf ("%*s%s/\n",depth,"",entry->d_name);

??

Is you strcmp "." perhaps picking up the . in the filename and giving you issues?
