Your program runs perfect if the search pattern is quoted like findfiles "*.*". If no quotes are used, the argument is expanded by the startup code and that leaves the first matching file as argument 1 which explains your finding. /Sune Falck PS I thing there are a global variable which can be set/unset to avoid the argument expansion. -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: root Till: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Datum: den 5 november 1998 22:04 Ämne: bug with gcc with findfirst/findnext >The functions >_findfirst >and >_findnext >Will not work with the last version of gcc (mingw32). > >Here is an example of the problem (under windows nt 4.0, SP3) - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
