Im working on this now, figure I would ask to see if someone else has solved it. Has anyone tried to make ofxDirlist recursive, so that it gets all images in a folders with in folders …

I’d do it with Poco.
When 0.06 is out I’ll be doing a fully featured version.
For now:

Have at it. Needs Poco, you would just have to fiddle up a very Multidimensional Vector…

Is this recursive of just one level of folders?
wow this is hard I have been searching and can’t not find anything to help me do this. I am now tying to hack Theo’s Dir list to see if I can get it to search sub directories. If anyone can help 
maybe this is a good link?

How do you iterate through every file/directory recursively in standard C++
…

You don’t. The c++ standard has no concept of directories.
this is where either system level stuff, like windows / linux & mac specific code would be used or a higher level library like poco, boost, qt, etc.
I hope that helps!

Based on JGLs code above I made this poco based directory lister. I kept the functions largely inline with ofxDirList, but added recursion, file size, date created and modified.
Works on Mac and PC - not tried on linux.
Take care with recursion - particularly on 'Nix based systems if you point it at a mount point (ie., /Volumes) then it will go on forever, 'curse it
