I am wondering if someone would possibly post a recursive function that prints
out all files and sub-directories. I've never created a recursive function
before and I'm having problems getting all files and directories to print.
Thank You
Here's a short program that recursively prints out the directories and
files under (and including) the directory given as input.
#include <iostream>
#include // includes
boost/filesystem/path.hpp
#include
using namespace std;
namespace fs = boost::filesystem;
void Recurse( fs::path & target );
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if( argc < 2 )
{
cerr << "Usage: " << argv[0] << " <path>" << endl;
return 0;
}
fs::path rootpath( argv[1] );
Recurse( rootpath );
return 0;
}
void Recurse( fs::path & target )
{
if( !fs::exists( target ) ) return;
fs::directory_iterator end_itr; // default construction yields past-the-end
if( fs::is_directory( target ) )
{
cout << target.string() << endl;
for( fs::directory_iterator itr( target ); itr != end_itr; ++itr )
Recurse( *itr );
}
else // root of recursion
cout << target.string() << endl;
}
