FTP a directory

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/FTP a directory

Pretty much sums it up, I need to shift a directory (inc subfolders and child files) to webspace using FTP.

I've been poking around all night with Wininet, a couple of code archives, but Wininet is a bit of a bugger as it just hangs the app, and the bits of code archive I picked up doesnt work, telling me the file(s) have transferred successfully, yet, nothing on the server, even after a refresh.

Anyone got anything?

Thanks in advance

Filezilla? (drag and drop) :-)

I'm sure there are modules around that can help you there, and take away much of the stress.

On Macs, I use Cyberduck (www.cyberduck.ch); I found it to be even more reliable than Filezilla and it also works better with SFTP than Filezilla.

Other than that, try Python and its 'included batteries'. ;-) Mark Lutz's "Programming Python" comes with great sample code.

I use the duck too.

Other than that, I'd use libcurl(ssl) and its included support :-)
