Obtain filenames from a directory (Pcap program)

[lancer6238@yahoo.com]

Hi all,
I'm writing a program using libpcap, and I have multiple pcap files in
a folder that I want to capture.

I currently have

handle = pcap_open_offli ne("/data/traffic/pcap1.pcap", errbuf");

which works fine since pcap_open_offli ne() takes in a filename.
However, I want to process multiple pcap files from the directory /
data/traffic/ at once. Is there a way to do that?

Thank you.

Regards,
Rayne

I doubt have that. That is unlikely to even compile.

Not in standard C which is the topic of comp.lang.c.
