It won't compile because at this point Dir isn't typedefed, so C requires
"struct Dir". So...

typedef struct Dir
{
       // some space to hold data here
       struct Dir *next;
}DIR;

There is no way the code you show works for any C compiler, let alone
VS2005. You never do the linking part of the linked list.

Besides, none of this is really Cocoa so it doesn't belong on this list.
