HELP! homework problem

[fidan15]

Hello!

For my homework problem I received the task to modify a program so that it can open,read and close a directory, without the library <dirent.h>.
Up till now I have tried to copy and paste a ready code from <dirent.h>, just to see how the program is supposed to work.
I used the explanation from the following website as a reference:
http://www.devx.com/cplus/10MinuteSolution/26748/1954?pf=true

And the program compiles without error, but the problem is, it does not print out any result, so I really wonder whether I have executed it properly.

I just wrote in the Konsole:

t06> g++ test.cc

//test.cc is the name of my program

and then t06> test

and I get back an empty prompt, and not the list of the files of the current directory:

t06>

Can anyone help me how to see the program executed?

I assume you are running Unix or Linux where the executable file produced by g++ is called a.out by default.
You execute it in a terminal with the command

./a.out
 

if you want the executable file called test, compile and execute it so

g++ test.cc -o test
./test
 

if that does not work post the program code so it can be checked

It is worth noting that when you typed
t06> test
at the terminal you ran the Unix test (check file types and compare values ) command, see
