posted October 25, 2006 1:34 PM Hi, I thought I might be able to 'mget' a whole directory tree (including all subfolders and their files) from a Windows XP system using: FTP1.MGet "ParentFolder\*", "C:\DestFolder" When, I issue this command, nothing at all gets retrieved, even though I know I am at the right folder level, and that ParentFolder really does contain some stuff. I've noticed in the Dart documentation that mget is not fully supported except for Unix and DOS-style listings. Is this what it means ? The FTP server is written using the Dart FTPServer tool. The client is using the latest DartFTP.DLL. Do I need to use FTP1.List when retrieving multiple files and folders from Windows ? |

posted October 26, 2006 3:44 PM Hello, If the server sends an empty listing in response to the LIST sent by the client, then the FtpServer does not inherently support wildcards. If the FTP Server does not support recursive listings, then I would suggest you to try adding multiple MGets in your application. You also have to setup your own recursive routine that performs Lists (to discover the sub-directories) and MGets for each directory. You are absolutely right that only Unix and DOS Style listings are supported. Regards, Amit |
