Finding duplicate files in two base directories
Hello All,
I have got some assignment to complete till this Monday and problem statement is as follow :-

Code:
Problem :- Find duplicate files (especially .c and .cpp) from two project base directories with following requirement :- 
1.Should be extendable to search in multiple base project directories
2.Must use STL container 
3.Should be portable to be used on Linux and Windows   
4.In advance search it should also look for contents of the file.

While surfing on net came across Boost::FileSystem which is portable on both OS.
Friends please provide me some inputs on this.
Thank you very much in advance.
