What is the *nix equivalent of win32 io.h ?

| Hi.
I'm trying to port a piece of code, written for win32, that
uses finddata_t structure, along with the findfirst/findnext functions.
Is there an equivalent , or a work-around, that implements finddata_t
on
*nix platform?

If you would explain what you are trying to do and show us some code it
would make it easier for us to help point you in the right direction.

Try looking at the following functions
opendir
readdir, readdir_r
fnmatch

scandir, where available.

| Sure.
(Sorry for the late posting.)
Here is the code:
struct _finddata_t t;
138 do
139 {
140 if(gi_NumFiles == 1000) Fatal("Too many input files", 0);
141 strcpy(gazstar + gazstarin, t.name);
142 gpst_Files[gi_NumFiles++].psz_FileName = gazstar +
gazstarin;
143 gazstarin += strlen(t.name) + 1;
144 } while(_findnext(h, &t) != -1);

I think you missed the point. You are asking in a UNIX group. It's
somewhat rude to just name an API from another system (e.g. win32) and
expect the readers to be able to translate that into what functionality
they provide. Describe the functionality you are looking for.
Having said that, take a look at glob(3c) and ftw/nftw.

fnmatch might come in handy, too.

Or perhaps nothing at all because the shell does the globbing for
him.

| Hi again.
The readdir_r did the magic.
Sory to Dillon, for asking in this group.
I have a question Dillon. Say that I would've asked this question
on a win32 group. What a win32 programmer would've said?
IMHO, I wouldn't get any answers.

You asked in the right group, but you asked the wrong question. You
should have asked something like "How can I read the names of all
files in a directory?".

By posting in win32 terms to c.u.p you only enable those who have
knowledge of both the win32 and *NIX APIs to respond. You assume that
there is someone here who can bridge the knowledge gap for you. So why
do you assume nobody in a win32 group could do the same? I agree that
there are likley many more c.u.p folks with win32 knowledge than the
other way round. And I agree that your question should have been asked
here.
My primary point is/was that you didn't have to just name win32 APIs
where they don't apply. You could have described the functionality you
needed and thereby communicated effectively to everyone in c.u.p rather
than just those who also have win32 API knowledged.

That doesn't seem to have prevented you from responding.

1) He wasn't rude.
2) There is a very good reason, to make sure he (and anyone else who
reads the thread) knows how to write an effective question.

| Hi again.
True. I haven't asked in the right manner, and I apologise.
I thanks to those who helped me, disregarding the usual "background
noise" in a thread :-P.
