Array of Files in a Directory
Just a quick question:

It depends on what operating system and compiler you are using.
Sorry about that...
I've got Windows and I use MingW and Cygwin, but mostly MingW.
Is this actually a difficult question?
You need to fill a WIN32_FIND_DATA struct with a call to FindFirstFile() and then iterate through the directory with FindNextFile() until it returns INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE. Each time FindNextFile() returns sucessfully the filename will be a member of the WIN32_FIND_DATA struct which you could use to fill an array. You'll need to include windows.h; search the boards/MSDN for an example if needed.
