Bug #13214 Updated: Request: Tiny patch to allow fast recurisive ftp_rawlist

ID: 13214 Updated by: matslin@orakel.ntnu.no Reported By: gray@lowpass.net Status: Open Bug Type: FTP related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: I just stumbled across this feature request earlier today, and i have created a patch as a suggestion that adds a parameter to ftp_rawlist, a boolean that indicates wether recursive or 'normal' listing should be used. You can test the patch if you want to, no guarantees, works for me: http://software.e-mats.org/patches/ftp-diff-2002-07-01 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-08 15:38:34] gray@lowpass.net I'm not really up to speed with making diffs and contributing myself, otherwise I would. There are many posts in the manual showing various ways to get recursive directory listing with ftp_rawlist, but they're all very slow as they required chdir'ing into each subdirectory.. One tiny change to ext/ftp/ftp.c at line 420 return ftp_genlist(ftp, "LIST", path); changed to return ftp_genlist(ftp, "LIST -R", path); And the FTP daemon at the other end will do all the work. It would be nice to have a more eligant version of that incorperated into a future release. Thanks.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=13214&edit=1
