Demonstrates how to call GetXmlDirListing and parse the results.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

// This example assumes Chilkat Ftp2 to have been previously unlocked.
// See Unlock Ftp2 for sample code.

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Ftp2')

// Authenticate with the FTP server.
$success = $ftp->LoginAfterConnectOnly();

$xmlListing = $ftp->getXmlDirListing('*.*');
