NAME
direntry - read directory entries
SYNTAX
#include <direntry.h>
DIR *opendir(fn);
struct direntry *readdir(dir);
void closedir(dir);
DIR *dir;
char *fn;
DESCRIPTION
The point of
direntry.h
is to provide a uniform interface to BSD's
sys/dir.h
and POSIX's
dirent.h.
The
readdir
interface is highly unsatisfactory.
It does not distinguish between I/O errors and end-of-directory.
It uses
malloc.
The return type for
closedir
varies: some implementations return the
close
return value.
