I liked Ashis’ layout though i enabled the frame=single key. For my own documents I often do the following when including many files (My example uses Java where different packages are used):

\newcommand{\sourceRoot}{../Java/src/}
\newcommand{\myPackage}{}
\newcommand{\myJPackage}{}
\newcommand{\sourcePackage}[2]{\subsection*{Package: #2}\renewcommand{\myPackage}{#1}\renewcommand{\myJPackage}{#2}}
\newcommand{\sourceClass}[1]{\lstinputlisting[caption=\myJPackage.#1]{\sourceRoot\myPackage/#1}}

After this the following lines can be used to include files from directories:

\lstlistoflistings
\sourcePackage{edu/psp/proteins}{edu.psp.proteins}
\sourceClass{Protein.java}
\sourceClass{ProteinConfiguration.java}
\sourceClass{AuxPrediction.java}
 
\sourcePackage{edu/psp/model}{edu.psp.model}
\sourceClass{CaProteinStructure.java}
\sourceClass{CurveStructure.java}
\sourceClass{NativeStructure.java}
...

Thank you so very much. Finally I have included C++ code that looks really fine.

\lstset{
	language=[Visual]C++,
	keywordstyle=\bfseries\ttfamily\color[rgb]{0,0,1},
	identifierstyle=\ttfamily,
	commentstyle=\color[rgb]{0.133,0.545,0.133},
	stringstyle=\ttfamily\color[rgb]{0.627,0.126,0.941},
	showstringspaces=false,
	basicstyle=\small,
	numberstyle=\footnotesize,
	numbers=left,
	stepnumber=1,
	numbersep=10pt,
	tabsize=2,
	breaklines=true,
	prebreak = \raisebox{0ex}[0ex][0ex]{\ensuremath{\hookleftarrow}},
	breakatwhitespace=false,
	aboveskip={1.5\baselineskip},
  columns=fixed,
  upquote=true,
  extendedchars=true,
% frame=single,
% backgroundcolor=\color{lbcolor},
}
