WildCard Search (General questions)

Does wodFtpDLX supports searching using wildcard on sftp server and return collection with names of files found. So one can loop through names to download files or other operations.

Anyz,

SFTP protocol does not support wildcard searches. You must list complete directory listing, and then filter it somehow only to match your pattern.

If you use, for example, LoopFiles, you will get LoopItem event fired for each file found - and then you can match it with some pattern and put in some local collection for later operations.

Hope I helped.

Thanks for your helpful reply. I got your idea and trying to implemnet it, if it works for me. I will update my findings here soon.

Many thanks for your excellent support service. I can see why you have a long list of excellent testimonials on your website.

Thank you very much for the rapid responses. I was a little nervous about dealing with a company that is on a different continent from me. You have proven my concerns to be unfounded.
