Ftp.DirectoryExists Method

Namespace: Rebex.Net
Assembly: Rebex.Ftp.dll (version 7.0.9147)

DirectoryExists(String)

Detects whether the specified directory exists on the server. Not all FTP servers support this!

Declaration
public bool DirectoryExists(string remotePath)
Parameters
Type Name Description
String remotePath

The path of the remote directory to check.

Returns
Type Description
Boolean

True if the directory exists, false otherwise.

Implements
IFtp.DirectoryExists(String)
Remarks

The standard FTP protocol does not have a dedicated command that could be used to detect whether a directory exists. There is the MLST command that is quite reliable, but not all server support it and we have to rely on MDTM, SIZE or even PWD, CWD commands for these servers.
