I want to find files name that are included in a specific address.
for example:
I want to get file names that are existed in "c:\myproject"
I have searched on internet and I found this part of code but unfortunately I do not know how to show the list of files.
HANDLE hFind;
BOOL bContinue = TRUE;
WIN32_FIND_DATA data;
hFind = FindFirstFile("szCurDir\*.*", &data);
// If we have no error, loop thru the files in this dir
while (hFind && bContinue)
{
bContinue = FindNextFile(hFind, &data);
}
FindClose(hFind); // Fre

I found this really useful for dealing with files in Linux C/C++ programs. This is a C lib but you will be able to use it in your C++ app.

This is obviously an incomplete code snippet from a windows program.
I doubt it would work - "szCurDir\*.*" doesn't seem right.
However, It is easy to access the WIN32_FIND_DATA structure to get details of the found files.
The following code snippet from one of my programs gets the file attributes:-
hFindFile = FindFirstFile(szwFindPath, &FindFileData); // First search supplied path
if(hFindFile!=INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
mCreationTime = FindFileData.ftCreationTime;
mLastWriteTime = FindFileData.ftLastWriteTime;
mLastAccessTime = FindFileData.ftLastAccessTime;
mFileSizeHigh = FindFileData.nFileSizeHigh;
mFileSizeLow = FindFileData.nFileSizeLow;
mFileAttributes = FindFileData.dwFileAttributes;
FindClose(hFindFile);
return true;
}

Just realized I replied earlier without actually pasting a link into the post.
Here it is:

Sorry.
