#import <CkoFtp2.h>
#import <NSString.h>

BOOL success = NO;

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

CkoFtp2 *ftp = [[CkoFtp2 alloc] init];

ftp.Hostname = @"ftp.example.com";
ftp.Username = @"login";
ftp.Password = @"password";

// Connect and login to the FTP server.
success = [ftp Connect];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Rename the remote file (or directory)
NSString *existingFilepath = @"dirA/hello.txt";
NSString *newFilepath = @"dirB/hello.txt";
success = [ftp RenameRemoteFile: existingFilepath newFilename: newFilepath];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

success = [ftp Disconnect];
