Hi,
My code below counts number of files do be downloaded and if any new files found (not marked with "dwn"), downloads those.
I'm using older version of free FTP for .NET component and I'm trying to recognize between file and subfolder.
I'm confused about something.
When I use dir method, it extracts all files and subfolders names altogether.
But later I'm using this artificial method of recognizing files with "exists" method which returns "true" for file, but "false" for subfolder.
Does it make sense and reasonable way to do it?
Also, Is there a way to use "DIR" method or some other to extract just files not subfolder names?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dim ftpCxn as new FTPClient
ftpCxn.RemoteHost = strRemoteHost
ftpCxn.Connect()
ftpCxn.Login(dr(4).ToString.Trim, dr(5).ToString.Trim)
Dim arrFiles() As String = ftpCxn.Dir(strFTPSubFolder)
Dim ii As Integer = 0
Dim kk As Integer = 0
Dim iFiles As Integer = 0
Dim ll As Integer
If arrFiles.Length > 0 Then
'Count New Files To Be Downloaded and The Ones Which Exist as File (not folder)
'no easy way to recognize between folder and file, see arttificial check below
For ii = 0 To arrFiles.Length - 1
If Strings.Right(arrFiles(ii), 3).Trim.ToLower <> "dwn" And _
ftpCxn.Exists(arrFiles(ii)) = True Then
iFiles = iFiles + 1
End If
Next
Thank You
