I am using the stat.h header and stat() to read and list files and directories in a directory. I've tried my code with different preset directories to see the result and print the corresponding type of the entry and so far in each test the code shows the current directory and 2 sub directories as directories but shows the other directories as files despite having the correct path listed alongside it
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <wchar.h>
extern int errno;
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
setlocale(LC_ALL,"Turkish");
DIR* dp;
struct dirent dirp;
char test[9999];
getcwd(test,9999);
printf("FOLDERMAIN:%s\n",test);
dp=opendir(".");
searchDirectoryForString(dp,"Mat",test);
return 0;
}
void searchDirectoryForString(DIR* dp,char* str,char* directoryname)
{
int lineno=1,num=0;
FILE* fp;
struct dirent *file;
char temp[99999];
char buf[99999];
char *rpath;
rpath = calloc(99999,1);
char path[99999];
char* temppath;
temppath = calloc(99999,1);
int count = 0;
char dirhold[100];
char* dot;
int line_num = 1;
int find_result=0;
static int check=0;
DIR* fdp;
if(dp==NULL)
{
printf("cant open");
}
struct stat filestat;
while (file=readdir(dp)) {
stat(file->d_name,&filestat);
//printf("%s\n",file->d_name);
if(strcmp(file->d_name,"..")==0||(strcmp(file->d_name,".")==0))
continue;
if ( S_ISDIR(filestat.st_mode))
{
check++;
printf("\n CHECK: %d\n",check);
if(check!=1)
{
strcpy(temppath,directoryname);
printf("temp:%s\n",directoryname);
strcat(directoryname,"\\");
strcat(directoryname,file->d_name);
dot = strrchr(directoryname, '\\');
strcpy(dirhold,dot);
printf("DIR: %s\n",dirhold);
printf("%s KLASÖR\n",directoryname);
chdir(directoryname);
dp=opendir(directoryname);
if(dp==NULL)
{
printf("2\n");
}

chdir(directoryname);

if(dp==NULL)
{
printf("2\n");
}
strcat(path,dirhold);
searchDirectoryForString(dp,str,path);
}
}
else
{
snprintf(buf,99999,"%s",directoryname);
strcat(buf,"\\");
//strcat(directoryname,dirhold);
strcat(buf,file->d_name);
printf("%s FILE \n",buf);
//Close the file if still open.
if(fp) {
fclose(fp);
strcpy(rpath," ");
}
}
}
}
}
I tried my best to produce an MCVE below. One new thing i noticed is if i add another folder to a preset folder it is not recognized as a folder. If i add a folder to a folder which is one of the recognized folders it is also recognized as a folder(nested folder) the issue is most likely caused by the stat function so wrote another function for it to be able to seen more clearly as its in its own scope. Im using devc++ as my IDE.

DIR* dp;
struct dirent dirp;
char test[9999];
getcwd(test,9999);
printf("FOLDERMAIN:%s\n",test);
dp=opendir(".");
listDir(dp,test);
return 0;
}
int isDir(const char *name) {
struct stat fileStat;
return !stat(name, &fileStat) && S_ISDIR(fileStat.st_mode);
}
void listDir(DIR* dp,char* directoryname)
{
struct dirent *file;
char buf[99999];
char* temppath;
temppath = calloc(99999,1);
int count = 0;
char dirhold[100];
char* dot;
int line_num = 1;
int find_result=0;
static int check=0;
char* dir;
DIR* fdp;
if(dp==NULL)
{
printf("cant open");
}
while (file=readdir(dp)) {
//printf("%s\n",file->d_name);
if(strcmp(file->d_name,"..")==0||(strcmp(file->d_name,".")==0))
continue;
if (isDir(file->d_name))
{
check++;
printf("\n CHECK: %d\n",check);
strcpy(temppath,directoryname);
printf("temp:%s\n",directoryname);
strcat(directoryname,"\\");
strcat(directoryname,file->d_name);

strcpy(dirhold,dot);
