  • Iterate files/directories/subdirectories in C ?

    Thanks for the reply. Yea, I wonder how I would go about implementing an iterative approach tho. I am currently working with the following implementation: https://github.com/tronkko/dirent/blob/master/include/dirent.h
  • How can you iterate up the directory tree until the program gets to the first?

    You can use dirent for both if you include a compatibility shim for windows.
