The C++ language isn't tied to a specific platform. Consequently, it doesn't include features which are platform-specific. Directories are such a feature: not all platforms have them, and those that do can have wildly different semantics. So you need to use either a third-party library (e.g. boost::filesystem), or the platform's native OS functions (e.g. opendir/readdir/closedir on Unix, FindFirstFile/FindNextFile/FindClose on Windows).
