Could be BUG! I am NOT sure...

[arma]

Hello everybody;

I have a sample ftp folder, When i use ftp software such as Filezilla there is no problem. Everything works fine. But when i need to directory list of my ftp folder on my purebasic. I cant get the directory list properly. By the was i use Ubuntu. I didnt try the same code on Windows nor Mac OSX. Maybe this is related to Ubuntu. Maybe all does the same. But i wonder if there is any way to get ftp list properly on purebasic (Ubuntu)
My sample code is below. Any solution for me?

Code: Select all

InitNetwork()
If OpenFTP(0,"ftp.armacomputer.com.tr","test","denemeX1453")
  If ExamineFTPDirectory(0)
    While NextFTPDirectoryEntry(0)
      Debug FTPDirectoryEntryName(0)
    Wend
    FinishFTPDirectory(0)
  EndIf
Else
  Debug "Can't connect to ftp"
EndIf

// Edit: Code-Tags added (Kiffi)

As you can see here:

Wireshrak report the structure correct.
Plain spaces between the strings.

Why screaming, just change the title of your thread to a more meaningful one.

You mean this is not purebasic bug?

That's right: it's not. Use FTPDirectoryEntryRaw() to get the list (per below Help screenshot).

If you look at the original thread, you will see that also FTDirectoryEntryRaw()
does not return all entries.

Code: Select all

InitNetwork()
If OpenFTP(0,"ftp.armacomputer.com.tr","test","denemeX1453")
  If ExamineFTPDirectory(0)
    While NextFTPDirectoryEntry(0)
      Debug FTPDirectoryEntryRaw(0)
    Wend
    FinishFTPDirectory(0)
  EndIf
Else
  Debug "Can't connect to ftp"
EndIf

It returns:

Code: Select all

08-25-20  11:59PM                11911 5
08-25-20  11:59PM                11911 2
08-25-20  11:59PM                11911 1

So it is still not possible to get all file entries.

It is not really a bug, since Fred wrote that it only works correct with Unix ftp,
but if something is only working partially, it is not good and should be fixed.

As I already mentioned many times...

all the high level network stuff should be changed to libcurl, because more possibilities and it
simply works on all platforms and it also allows the 's' versions of the protocols like imaps or ldaps
