 ChangeDir Event
    
 

Description

Fires when user wants to change directory.


Syntax

Private Sub object_ChangeDir(User, RelativePath, ResolvedPath, Action)



The ChangeDir Event syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object A wodFTPD object.
User A FtpUser object. Reference to user who is changing directory.
RelativePath A String value.

Path as seen by the user.
ResolvedPath A String value. Full path to folder on your system.
Action A FtpActions enumeration, as described in settings. When set to Deny/SilentDeny, wodFTPServer denies this action.

Settings

The settings for Action are:

Constant Value Description
 Deny 0 Deny execution of the action.
 Allow 1 Allow to execute action.
 SilentDeny 2 Silently deny execution of the action.
 SilentAllow 3 Silently allow to execute action.

Remarks

ChangeDir event is fired when client sends 'CWD' or 'CDUP' commands, requesting directory to be changed. At this point you can 'protect' some directories with your code, thus rejecting client's request. However, SFTP protocol internally does not support CWD command and doesn't have alternative for it - so this event will never fire in SFTP protocol mode.
