Directory Nodes

Does anybody know how to read contents of a directory into a c program?

eg: fopen( directory_name, "r"); ???

Have a look at stat(2) and readdir(3).

getdents(2)

Code:

#include <dirent.h>
DIR *dp;
struct dirent *dirp;
dp=opendir("dirname");
while((dirp=readdir(dp))!=NULL)
  printf("%s\n",dirp->d_name);

Bugs not fixed

what bug?

>>what bug?

The program gave only concept.
It doesn't check the existence of ``dirname'' i.e.

Code:

if ((dp=opendir("dirname"))==NULL) {
  /* do some stuff */
  exit(1);
}
