I wrote a program, to read an IFS directory to process incoming files, however there are times, where more that one file may be present at one time, so I used the readdir command to process each transaction/file. However, I now need to process each file in its arrival sequence, I was wondering, if anybody knows the precedence in which the readdir command process each file... If not, I will need to read the directory once, to grab the filenames, and the timestamp... and then re-read the files using that order... But then the question comes, what variable holds the best timestamp value...for a stream file...
