copied!<p>You can use the Windows API which provides a set of directory search functions. When using the directory search you specify a file search criteria and then do repeated calls until there are no more files or you have found the one you want.</p> <p>The nice thing about these functions is that as part of returning the next file in the directory, there is also returned a struct containing various file attributes including the date and time stamps as well as whether the file is hidden or not.</p> <p>So you could use a loop something like the following source code snip:</p> <pre><code>WIN32_FIND_DATA search_data; uInt2++; TCHAR *ptcsFileNameEnd = tcsFileName + _tcslen(tcsFileName); _tcscat (ptcsFileNameEnd, _T("\\*.*")); memset(&search_data, 0, sizeof(WIN32_FIND_DATA)); HANDLE handle = FindFirstFile(tcsFileName, &search_data); while(handle != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) { if ((search_data.dwFileAttributes & (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY | FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM | FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN)) == 0) { *(ptcsFileNameEnd + 1) = 0; _tcscat (ptcsFileNameEnd, search_data.cFileName); if (ReadAndProcessLicenseFile (tcsFileName)) { uInt2 = 0; break; } } if(FindNextFile(handle, &search_data) == FALSE) break; } </code></pre> <p>In your case you would look at the search_data struct for the date time stamp and do comparisons.</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> The struct WIN32_FIND_DATA is defined in winbase.h and the struct looks like the following for my Visual Studio C++ 2005 environment with UNICODE turned on.</p> <pre><code>typedef struct _WIN32_FIND_DATAW { DWORD dwFileAttributes; FILETIME ftCreationTime; FILETIME ftLastAccessTime; FILETIME ftLastWriteTime; DWORD nFileSizeHigh; DWORD nFileSizeLow; DWORD dwReserved0; DWORD dwReserved1; WCHAR cFileName[ MAX_PATH ]; WCHAR cAlternateFileName[ 14 ]; #ifdef _MAC DWORD dwFileType; DWORD dwCreatorType; WORD wFinderFlags; #endif } WIN32_FIND_DATAW, *PWIN32_FIND_DATAW, *LPWIN32_FIND_DATAW; #ifdef UNICODE typedef WIN32_FIND_DATAW WIN32_FIND_DATA; typedef PWIN32_FIND_DATAW PWIN32_FIND_DATA; typedef LPWIN32_FIND_DATAW LPWIN32_FIND_DATA; #else </code></pre>
