hi every one, am really a newbie in both linux and C programming language.. back at the collage they asked us to simulate the cp command by modifying the C code below (it was doing the 'ls' job at the beginning):
#include<unistd.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<dirent.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<sys/stat.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void printdir(char *dir)
{
DIR *dp;
struct dirent *entry;
struct stat info;
if((dp=opendir(dir))==NULL)
{
write(2,"cannot open directory\n",22);
return;
}
chdir(dir);chdir(dir);
while((entry=readdir(dp))!=NULL)
{
printf("\n%s",entry->d_name);
stat(entry->d_name,&info);
if(S_ISDIR(info.st_mode)){
if(strcmp(entry->d_name,".")==0)
continue;
printf("/");
printdir(entry->d_name);}
}
closedir(dp);
}
int main()
{
printdir("Mustafa");
return 0;
}
note1: if help can be provided in a form of source code, that shall be very good and helpful.. just modifying the above code..
note2: this code was basically written to simulate the 'ls' command..
now if any one can provide the modifications needed to this code to work.. PLEASE send it to me.. either here or via e-mail:
