dirent | C/C++ library for retrieving information on files | File Utils library

So the code idea is as following: i pick a path in the main, go in it, if i encounter a file, just save its name and modification date in the .txt file, otherwise it should open the directory it just found, get inside and re-do the process for this directory

The rest of the process works quite fine, UNTIL i uncomment the recursive part, where it will proceed to go in itself i think (Path.), then loops to that state (go to Path.., Path... , etc), making the thing completely useless and justan infinite loop

Any ideas?

I wrote a c code on visual studio to compare binary file to search a know virus in other binary file.
the code is running on my windows PC perfectly however it won't compile on the Linux test of my collage.

the code receive a folder containing the files and the file of the virus


this is the code adjusted for Linux that i sent to the test

I am listing elements in a directory in C.

I use the following code:

I open a directory that has multiple subdirectories with names of countries. What i want is to make a list and store the paths of these directories in the nodes. The issue comes up when i print the list and in the destructor. I don't seem to get what's wrong since i've used these functions multiple times before with no issue coming up.

The directory looks something like this:

I'm new to this kind of programming so i'm sorry in advance if it's a dump question.I'm trying to do a very simple task but i don't seem to get what goes wrong.

I have a parent process that creates a number of children processes, and with the usage of FIFOs i want to send a message to all of the children (e.g "hi"), the message get's received by the processes but there is an error coming up no matter what i do and can't seem to find what's wrong.

Here is the parent's main function:

My goal is to try to get the name, size and last modified of a folder. I have used dirent.h to get the first two types. I don't know what the best way of getting the last modified value is, but the current way I am using does not seem very useful. I am getting type errors when trying to get my path as the dirent folder that I am opening. I'm not sure if there is an easier way to do this or but any guidance would be much appreciated. I found an example of how to get the last modified on stackoverflow and was trying to use that... below is my code:

Is below code adding valid strings to the vector?

I'm trying to make a C program that will display all the files and folders containing a given search term. The search term is given as an argument when executing the program. A folder / file is displayed to standard output if its name contains the search term (case insensitive). The difficulty though is that I do not want to output files and subfolders that are contained in a folder that contains the search term. Here's an example:

Let's assume my search term is docker, this is the current output:

I am trying to compile this excerpt of code without errors:
