To change the current remote directory, call ChangeRemoteDir. C++

#include <CkFtp2.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkFtp2 ftp;

    ftp.put_Hostname("ftp.example.com");
    ftp.put_Username("login");
    ftp.put_Password("password");

    // Connect and login to the FTP server.
    success = ftp.Connect();
    if (success != true) {
        std::cout << ftp.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    // Set the current directory (on the FTP server) to the
    // "orders" subdirectory.  When logging into an FTP account,
    // current remote directory is automatically set to the
    // home directory of the FTP account.  From the FTP client's
    // perspective, it will be "/", but the absolute path on the
    // FTP server might be something like "/home/ftp_users/".
    success = ftp.ChangeRemoteDir("orders");
    if (success != true) {
        std::cout << ftp.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
