Ftp.GetRawListAsync Method
Namespace: Rebex.Net
Assembly: Rebex.Ftp.dll (version 7.0.9083)
GetRawListAsync(String, FtpListingType, Object)
Begins asynchronous GetRawList operation. Retrieves the raw list of files and directories as received from the server.
Declaration
public Task<string[]> GetRawListAsync(string arguments, FtpListingType listingType, object state = null)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| String | arguments | Arguments for the list command. |
| FtpListingType | listingType | The listing command to use. |
| Object | state | An optional user-provided object that identifies this particular asynchronous operation. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Task<String[]> | The array of response lines. |
Remarks
This method supports retrieving the raw listings using either the LIST command or MLSD command. Using GetList is a better choice in most cases, because it returns the parsed list, unlike GetRawList(String, FtpListingType).
Please note that requesting a FtpListingType.MachineProcessingList list will only work on servers that support this extension - this can be determined using the SupportedExtensions property.
Caution: The meaning of the arguments argument is not defined by RFC and varies from server to server. Some servers interpret it as parameters to dir command, some as a filename, some ignore it and some report an error. Calling this method with arguments other than null is not recommended and will make your code incompatible with many FTP servers.
