wodSFTP ActiveX Control - LoopFiles Method
      
 

Description

Loops through multiple files in a sequence, recursive, giving their names.


Return Type

None  


Syntax

object.LoopFiles [RemotePath], [MaxLevel]



The LoopFiles Method syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object An expression evaluating to an object of type wodSFTP.
RemotePath Optional. A Variant value. Holds full path on the server from where to start enumerating files and folders.
MaxLevel Optional. A Variant value. Specifies maximum number of subdirectory levels to copy. 0 for unlimited.

Remarks

This method will just loop through all folders and files on specified RemotePath, and fire LoopItem event for each file/folder it finds - allowing you to save it (for example, in local collection) and then use later for various file/folder operations. wodSFTP will not do anything with those items by itself! Since LoopItem will provide full paths to those files, it is easy to use those paths later on with GetFile, GetData, PutFile, DeleteFile (etc.) operations.

If you want to download all those files (and create appropriate directory structure locally) you should use GetFiles method instead.

Do not forget that RemotePath should always specify full absolute path (i.e. /home/joe/something) instead of relative path (i.e. joe/something).
