Hi,
is there a reason why
int copyDirectory(const char *urlPrefix, const char *dir, const char *dest,
const char *suffix);
in ftptrans.h is not virtual? This would allow frontends to reimlement on a
higher level than getURL only. The current implementation of copyDirectory
has the weakness that the counter for total data to be transferred increases
as new directories are found and transferred. You can see this with the BAO
module from Karl Kleinpaste, for example. The status reporter 'readjusts'
progress as it discovers the directory with the images, which holds the
actual data.
Can we change the function definition above to make it virtual?
God bless,
mg
