creating complete directory trees

Question

Hello everybody,

im am writing an application to synchronize my local files with a ftp server. but doing this it is nessesary to create very deep directory trees.

so as it is not possyble to transfer a whole directory i have to create every single directory by hand.

does anyone know a smart solution for my problem? it would be helpful if i could check for the existence of a remote directory. how can i do this?

thanks,
peter

Answer 1

Use the dir() command, and parse the output to find out which are directories.

In the next release we'll be including some parsing classes to make this simpler.

I expect 1.3.0 to be released by Tues 20th April, which includes a new method that should give you the information you want.
