See more FTP Examples

_LANGUAGE_ example demonstrating how to get the number of files in a directory not including sub-directories. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    let ftp = CkoFtp2()!

    ftp.hostname = "ftp.example.com"
    ftp.username = "login"
    ftp.password = "password"

    // Connect and login to the FTP server.
    success = ftp.connect()
    if success != true {
        print("\(ftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // The ListPattern property is our directory listing filter.
    // The default value is "*", which includes everything.
    print("\(ftp.listPattern!)")

    // Fetch the current remote directory contents by
    // calling GetDirCount
    var i: Int
    var n: Int
    n = ftp.getDirCount().intValue
    if n < 0 {
        print("\(ftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    if n > 0 {
        // Loop over the directory contents, incrementing the count
        // each time it is NOT a directory.
        var fileCount: Int = 0
        for i = 0; i <= n - 1; i++ {

            // Is this NOT a sub-directory?
            if ftp.getIsDirectory(index: i) != true {
                fileCount = fileCount + 1
                // Display the filename
                print("\(ftp.getFilename(index: i)!)")
            }

        }

        print("Total number of files = \(fileCount)")
    }

    success = ftp.disconnect()
