C programming help

[TheStig]

Helo.

I have a problem.
In windows I did a program that writes on screen all *.cpp files that are in
a folder I want. Using recursion I went through all folders and I filterd all *.cpp files.

But in linux I dont know how becouse there is no CFindFile class.
How do I search through folder with recursion?

Please help me with my problem.

Thank you.

Quick question does it need to be in C as for this sort of thing most people use builtin commands and or shell scripts.

So in Linux, our library is called the GNU C Library (glibc). It implements the C standard, along with all the assorted POSIX and Linux functions that help you function.

Documentation on these functions are available through Linux's man pages (for instance, try running the command "man 2 write"), but you can find the entire manual online at:
The GNU C Library

And for your particular case, this section might be useful:
