renaming files

[khomeyni]

hello i want to see all files in directory dir that have .txt and rename them to directory dir2 with suffix .cpp how i can do this??

You may use FindFirstFile and FindNextFile APIs (or CFileFind MFC class) to see all fles in directory dir1. If file is having extension .txt ( you can use PathFindExtension), use CopyFile function to copy that file to dir2 with extension changed to .cpp.

can you write the code of it here?

If you took the trouble to go and look at the links that Cool_Dev provided you would see some sample code to help you.

Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

Note that people sometimes forget about FindClose() thus leaking a handle. Another important thing is that when FindFirstFile() returns INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE and when FindNextFile() returns FALSE you may want to check if GetLastError() returns ERROR_NO_MORE_FILES or something more brutal.

void txt2cpp(const TCHAR* path) { TCHAR full[_MAX_PATH+_MAX_FNAME]; TCHAR move[_MAX_PATH+_MAX_FNAME]; unsigned int flen; unsigned int mlen; HANDLE hf; WIN32_FIND_DATA fd; _tcscpy(full,path); flen = _tcslen(full); _tcscpy(full+flen,_T("\\*.txt")); hf = FindFirstFile(full); if(INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE!=hf) { do { if(!(FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY & fd.dwFileAttributes)) { _tcscpy(full+flen+1,fd.cFileName); _tcscpy(move,full); mlen = _tcslen(move); for(;(0
