_LANGUAGE_ example showing how to get information about files and subdirectories in the current remote FTP directory. .NET Core C#

bool success = false;

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

// The default value is "*", which includes everything.

// To get file and sub-directory information, simply
// loop from 0 to ftp.GetDirCount() - 1
