handle=iFtpFindInit(conhandle,currdir,strcat(prefix,"*"),@False,@False) While 1 hostfilename=iftpfindnext(@True) if hostfilename == "" then break (download file, etc) EndwhilePrefix is set to something like "myfile" and then we download all files which begin with that prefix.
Using wwInt34i.dll, the wildcard included the dot before the extension so the lines above would return "myfile.txt", "myfile1" and "myfile1.txt".
With wwInt44i.dll, the wildcard seems to exclude the period. So "myfile1" is returned, but not "myfile.txt" nor "myfile1.txt".
I think I proved this by adding a period to the prefix so that it was "myfile." and then the code would download "myfile.txt" But obviously, now it won't download "myfile1.txt" or "myfile1".
(And of course, if I change the prefix to "myfile*." then I'll get "myfile.txt" and "myfile1.txt" but not "myfile1".)
My first question, of course, is if there's a new parameter or something else that I missed that will restore the old behavior for iFtpFindInit.
If not, then may I ask if this change is intentional? If so, then I need to rewrite the code. If the change is not, then I can recompile with wwInt34i and wait for a fix to the newer extender.
Which way should I proceed?
Notes: The filename can be wildcarded. To match all files use '*', or to simply match files with extentions use "*.*"
You will need to do two seperate searches for files with extensions and files without extensions.
