am working on a C code,
i have client and server
client sends "list <foldername>"
server needs to copy the files in the folder to a string.
so that i can send that string back to the client.
i heard there is a function to handle this, do you know?
thanks

This is OS dependant. Look into opendir(), readdir() and closedir(), if on *nix. Look into FindFirstFile(), FindNextFile() and FindClose(), if on Windows.
