For directory listing I'm used to findfirst and findnext. I was looking around the gcc site for linux instructions but could not find any. I bet there right under my nose but I don't c'em. Basically I wish for an interactive web page that has all the standard functions used for linux in gcc. Any one know of where I should go?

Sylvan, gcc gnu Hey Kayvan, That helped too. Now I need a function that will let me determine the attributes of a file. Specifically, I wanna know if a file is a directory or not. In the dos world there was a program called dos_atrib. U got one like that for linux? Also what I'd really like is some online manual that grouped all the standard lib functions into different categories. Such as file management, networking, disk management, strings, etc. Anything like that around? One last thing on my wish list. A good debugger. Does linux have a standard debugger already installed on my system? Any thoughts? Thanks Danny "Kayvan A.

There's a manual/info book on the C library: info libc (which can also be typeset): and at <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/nfindex.html> is the Base Definitions for POSIX, which is the standard that you should actually be following when writing portable code :) By no means everything is in there (e.g. you won't find JPEG readers or graphical stuff in there), but the core stuff is. -- `There's something satisfying about killing JWZ over and over again.' -- 1i, personal communication ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

U referred to section 1 & 2. What book is >this? It's not a book, it's the man(ual) pages you get on most Unix system. To get the documentation for a program or library function, if the people who provided those also provided the man pages, you can usually simply type from the prompt man name_of_the_function The man pages are divided in sections, one for user programs, one for system programs, one for C library routines, one for games, etc... If a keyword is used in more than one section, you can chose which section to search specifying te number on the command line, like man 2 name_of_the_function Hope this helps, fwyzard [-- Attachment #2: Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 222 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread
