Demonstrates how to find out which files were downloaded in a SyncTreeDownload method call.

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

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.SFtp')
loSftp = CreateObject('Chilkat.SFtp')

lnSuccess = loSftp.Connect("my-ssh-server.com",22)
IF (lnSuccess = 1) THEN
    lnSuccess = loSftp.AuthenticatePw("mySshLogin","mySshPassword")
ENDIF

IF (lnSuccess = 1) THEN
    lnSuccess = loSftp.InitializeSftp()
ENDIF

IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSftp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSftp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Synchronize the remote directory tree rooted at "syncDownloadTest/xml"
* with the local directory tree rooted at "qa_output"
* Both directories are relative paths.  The remote directory
* is relative to the HOME directory of the SSH user account.
* The local directory is relative to the current working directory of the process.
* It is also possible to use absolute paths.

lcRemoteDir = "syncDownloadTest"
lcLocalDir = "qa_output"

* Possible modes that can be passed to the SyncTreeDownload method are:
* mode=0: Download all files
* mode=1: Download all files that do not exist on the local filesystem.
* mode=2: Download newer or non-existant files.
* mode=3: Download only newer files. If a file does not already exist on the local filesystem, it is not downloaded from the server.
* mode=5: Download only missing files or files with size differences.
* mode=6: Same as mode 5, but also download newer files.
* mode=99: Do not download files, but instead delete remote files that do not exist locally.

* This example will use mode 6 to download missing, newer, or files with size differences.
lnMode = 6
* This example will turn on recursion to synchronize the entire tree. 
* Recursion can be turned off to synchronize the files of a single directory.
lnRecursive = 1
lnSuccess = loSftp.SyncTreeDownload(lcRemoteDir,lcLocalDir,lnMode,lnRecursive)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSftp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSftp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Examine the list of downloaded files.
* The downloaded files are listed one per line in the SyncedFiles property.
* Local directories that were created will be listed with a trailing "/" char.
lcFileList = loSftp.SyncedFiles
? lcFileList
? ""

* For example:

* data/
* chiliPepper.gif
* helloWorld.pdf
* alice.key
* anter_cert.pem
* text/
* accentedLatin1.txt
* accentedUtf8.txt
* abc/
* abc/chiliPepper.gif
* abc/ghk/
* text/something/
* text/PolishEmailBody.txt
* text/frenchUtf8.txt
* text/helloWorld.txt
* data/chiliPepper.gif
* data/xyz/
* data/xyz/dkimHtmlBody.txt
* data/xyz/emailForCreateDsn.eml
* data/xyz/dkimVerifyTest.eml

* You could load the strings into a Chilkat string table..
* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.StringBuilder')
loSb = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringBuilder')
loSb.Append(lcFileList)

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.StringTable')
loSt = CreateObject('Chilkat.StringTable')
loSt.AppendFromSb(loSb)

* Find out how many files + dirs
? "Total count = " + STR(loSt.Count)

i = 0
DO WHILE i < loSt.Count
    ? loSt.StringAt(i)
    i = i + 1
ENDDO

? "Success."
