CkSFtpDir

Current Version: 9.5.0.97

Represents a remote SFTP directory listing.

Object Creation

obj = Chilkat::CkSFtpDir.new()

Properties

LastMethodSuccess
# boolVal is a boolean
boolVal = sFtpDir.get_LastMethodSuccess();
sFtpDir.put_LastMethodSuccess(boolVal);

Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of true indicates success, a value of false indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:

  • Any method that returns a string.
  • Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
  • Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = true and failure = false.
  • Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.

Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to true. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.

top
NumFilesAndDirs
# intVal is an integer
intVal = sFtpDir.get_NumFilesAndDirs();

The number of entries in this directory listing.

top
OriginalPath
# strVal is a string
# ckStr is a CkString
sFtpDir.get_OriginalPath(ckStr);
strVal = sFtpDir.originalPath();

The original path used to fetch this directory listing. This is the string that was originally passed to the OpenDir method when the directory was read.

top
Utf8
# boolVal is a boolean
boolVal = sFtpDir.get_Utf8();
sFtpDir.put_Utf8(boolVal);

When set to true, all "const char *" arguments are interpreted as utf-8 strings. If set to false (the default), then "const char *" arguments are interpreted as ANSI strings. Also, when set to true, and Chilkat method returning a "const char *" is returning the utf-8 representation. If set to false, all "const char *" return values are ANSI strings.

Methods

GetFilename
# index is an integer
# outStr is a CkString (output)
status = sFtpDir.GetFilename(index, outStr);
retStr = sFtpDir.getFilename(index);

Returns the Nth filename in the directory (indexing begins at 0).

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
GetFileObject
# returns a CkSFtpFile
# index is an integer
ret_sFtpFile = sFtpDir.GetFileObject(index);

Returns the Nth entry in the directory. Indexing begins at 0.

Returns nil on failure

top
LoadTaskResult
# task is a CkTask
status = sFtpDir.LoadTaskResult(task);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.52

Loads the SFTP directory object from a completed asynchronous task.

Returns true for success, false for failure.

top
Sort
# field is a string
# ascending is a boolean
sFtpDir.Sort(field, ascending);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.79

Sorts the files and sub-directories in ascending or descending order based on the field. Possible values for field are "filename", "filenameNoCase", "lastModifiedTime", "lastAccessTime", "lastCreateTime", or "size". (For case-insensitive filename sorting, use "filenameNoCase".)
