  Yes, there is.  DosFindFirst is an operating system API, and the
  parameters to it exist irrespective of C++ compiler (or even of
  language).

  If you mean that you didn't see it in the documentation, then you are
  making the common newbie mistake of reading the 16-bit documentation for
  OS/2 1.x instead of the 32-bit documentation for OS/2 2.x and above.
  Watcom C++ includes both.

  The OS/2 2.x CP reference is \WATCOM\BINP\HELP\GUIREF20.INF .
