MyFTPConnection.Server = "192.54.12.8"
FTPConnect(MyFTPConnection)
ResSize= FTPSize(MyFTPConnection, "/Documents/File.doc")
Syntax New in SaaS
Getting the size of a file (connection via the identifier of the connection to the FTP server) Hide the details
<Result> = FTPSize([<Connection ID> , <File name>]])
<Result>: Integer - File size in bytes,
- -1 if an error occurred. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo with the errMessage constant.
<Connection ID>: Integer Connection identifier, returned by FTPConnect.
<File name>: Character string Name and full or relative path of the file be accessed. The different parts of the path are separated by "slashes" ("/"). Note: If the <Connection ID> and <File name> parameters are not specified, the size returned will be that of the last file accessed using one of the following FTP functions: FTPDate, FTPTime, FTPSize, FTPListFile. In this case, no request is sent to the server. This syntax is recommended. Remarks Timeout By default, all the FTP functions fail if the FTP server does not respond within 20 seconds. This time can be modified: - when connecting to the FTP server with FTPConnect (<Timeout> parameter).
New in SaaSwhen defining the parameters of the ftpConnection variable ( Timeout property). Note: This feature is only available from WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025 - Update 2.
Rights of users Only a user who has read rights on the FTP server can get information about the files or the directories located on an FTP server. In most cases, the read rights are granted to the "anonymous" users. Relative and absolute path The notions of relative path and absolute path are very important in an FTP application. - A path beginning with a slash is considered an absolute path. This path is relative to the root of the FTP server (server-specific parameter).
ex: /pub/user/JULIA - If the path does not begin with a slash, it is considered a relative path, i.e. the path relative to the current directory. This current directory can be obtained or changed using FTPCurrentDir.
When connecting to an FTP site, the initial directory (the "base directory" of the user) is not necessarily found at the root of the FTP server. Therefore, we recommend that you use relative paths. Business / UI classification: Business Logic
