get FTP file list include all subfolder and download

[syana]

Hi There,

I'm new user of wxWidget.
I want to display all the files of a folder (including those in subfolders) located on a FTP server. Then download some of them.

I have 2 problems:

1. How to display ALL the files?
If I use wxFTP::GetDirList or wxFTP::GetFilesList, I only have the files in the folder, not those in subfolders.
Can I use function which are not in wxFTP such as wxDir::GetAllFiles? In this case, in "dirname" should I only write the name of the directory or also add the hostname?

2. When I try to download a file after being connected, I 've got ERROR: "Failed to set transfer mode to binary" How to solve that?

This is my code:

Code: Select all

static void TestFtpDownload(wxTextCtrl *m_textrich)
{
        wxString filename = _T("readme.txt"); 

	wxInputStream *in = ftp.GetInputStream(filename);

	if ( !in )
	{
		wxMessageBox(filename, _T("ERROR: couldn't get input stream for"), wxOK, NULL) ;
	}
	else
	{
		size_t size = in->GetSize();
		wxMessageBox(filename ,_T("Reading file") ,  wxOK, NULL) ;
		fflush(stdout);

		wxChar *data = new wxChar[size];
		if ( !in->Read(data, size) )
		{
			wxMessageBox(_T("RESULT"), _T("Read Error"), wxOK, NULL) ;
		}
		else
		{
			m_textrich->AppendText(data);
		}

		delete [] data;
		delete in;
	}
}

Please help me!
Thanks

Normally people wouldn't want to list ALL folder, subfolders, subsubfolders, etc. because it can lead up to HUGE amounts of output. Shit, if I did that on my CQPrograms directory, I'd probably be there for days! And to be quite honest, in Linux, I could make a script that runs through a loop and subdirectories determining whether something is a folder and if so list folders and files within and so on and so on etc. But, I don't see the ability to list specific directories inside of the wxGetList function or other similar functions. As a result, you'd probably not be able to unfortunately (at least through wxFTP). The best thing I can think of is maybe make something that would change to each directory and then call the GetDirList function.
(^ the above may not all be true due to my lack of knowledge in the subject)

Also, for the second problem, I don't see anything that connects to a server. I also don't even see where you construct a wxFTP class.

At the bottom is an example similar to yours. Try and compare it and see if you can figure it out.
