Enum FtpNavigate

Namespace

FluentFTP

Assembly

FluentFTP.dll

Directory navigation mode that control how server-side directory traversal is performed. Manual mode is the legacy version which allows users full control of the working directory. All the other modes are smarter automatic versions where FluentFTP will take control of the working directory when executing FTP subcommands that accept a pathname[+filename] combination.

[Flags]
public enum FtpNavigate : uint

Extension Methods

ValuePrinter.ObjectToString(object)

Fields

Auto = 1

Fully automatic directory traversal on the server-side. Users can SetWorkingDirectory (CWD), which will only temporarily override the CWD that will be set internally. Paths provided to FTP API can be absolute or relative to the current working directory. FluentFTP will automatically change the working directory based on the file path provided to the API method. Fast mode.

Conditional = 255

Adds a flag to the enum that allows automatic directory traversal ONLY if the path contains spaces. Only works with Auto or SemiAuto modes.

Manual = 0

The legacy navigation mode. No automatic directory navigation performed by FluentFTP. Users can SetWorkingDirectory (CWD). Paths provided to FTP API can be absolute or relative to the current working directory.

SemiAuto = 2

Fully automatic directory traversal on the server-side. FluentFTP will automatically change the working directory based on the file path provided to the API method. Users can SetWorkingDirectory (CWD), which will only temporarily override the CWD that will be set internally. Paths provided to FTP API can be absolute or relative to the current working directory. This mode is slower than Auto because we will restore the directory (if needed) to the one the one that was active prior to the API call.
