In C, can I list all files with certain extension inside a dir?
Any api available?
“ls” would be the last thing I want to do.
Thanks in advance.

On UNIX, you’re looking for
opendirandreaddir(and maybefnmatch) or alternativelyglob(which puts those three together for you). These are not part of C, but rather POSIX.
