Which files are in a folder? (C++ Question)
Author
(This may sound basic, but I looked through MSDN for hours and found NOTHING.)
In Windows C++, how can I create an array containing the filenames of all the files in a given directory?
Quick search of MSDN..

This example shows you how to find files in a directory and display the filenames to the screen. You can easily store these in a stl string array, and resize the array everytime a new file is found. That's how I would do it.

boost has a directory iterator as well
