Hey guys,

been a while since I asked for help here
But this question I looked for in the manual, but couldn't find anything related...

I wanna read out specific filetype files from a folder, is there a way to store all filenames of them in an array?
(maybe just every file in the folder, then i can seperate out all the specific's I want myself by looking at it's extension).

anyone know's how to, or could write me some code/DLL?

thanks!

C'mon man...

Check the manual...

txt_for_dir( TEXT*,STRING* name)

:b

HAHAHHAHAAAA, oh, i'm so ashamed xD
I kept on looking for "folder" and "file", but never looked for this...
thanks for pointing that out ^__^

Sometimes you just need a push in the right position, and I couldnt imagine this wouldnt be supported already...

thanks again

No problems dude. Happens to the best of us...

even me...

FILE* file = fopen("c:\\file.txt","r"/*Open params*/);

int data;

fscanf(file,"%d",&data);

fclose(file);

Hope that helps.
use "r" for reading, use "w" for writing, use "a" for appending at the end of file. Although you need to use fprintf instead of fscanf.

thanks, though i already figured it out using txt_for_dir.
thanks nonetheless

regards,

Keep Sepiantum's suggestion in mind though Helghast.
txt_for_dir is missing some capabilities.

I think it is incapable of listing sub-folders or something like that.
It ONLY will list files, and those files MUST have some extension.
Or something like that....

Damn my long-term memory.

That's fine, all i really want is to read .bmp files out of a single folder (nothing nested or whatever in there).
It's good for future reference, I agree, who knows i might need it later anyway

for now i can load all the strings, and read it out and load them bmp's using pstring, that's all I wanted ^_^

regards,
