Get the Last-Modified Date/Time for one File by Name

Demonstrates how to get the last-modified date/time for a file on the FTP server by specifying the remote file path. C++

#include <CkFtp2.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkFtp2 ftp;

    ftp.put_Hostname("ftp.example.com");
    ftp.put_Username("myLogin");
    ftp.put_Password("myPassword");
    //  Use explicit TLS
    ftp.put_AuthTls(true);
    ftp.put_Port(21);

    //  For debugging, turn on session logging so we can examine what is sent by the server.
    ftp.put_KeepSessionLog(true);

    //  Connect and login to the FTP server.
    success = ftp.Connect();
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << ftp.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    ftp.ChangeRemoteDir("AAWorkarea");

    //  Get the last-modified date/time information for the file "package.tgz"
    std::cout << ftp.getLastModifiedTimeByNameStr("package.tgz") << "\r\n";

    //  Show the session log so we can see the details of the date/time information sent by the server.
    //  This tells us what information is available.  Some FTP servers provide better and more accurate information
    //  than others.

    std::cout << "---- Session Log ----" << "\r\n";
    std::cout << ftp.sessionLog() << "\r\n";

    ftp.Disconnect();
    }
