Re: [Ssh-sftp-perl-users] About sftp->ls method

[Russ B. <us...@gm...>]

I use this:

@$files_in_directory = $sftp->ls($remote_server_directory);

foreach (@$files_in_directory) {
  $longlist = $_->{longname};
  $shortname = $_->{filename};
  print "longname = $longname}\n";
  print "shortname = $shortname\n";

  if ($shortname =~ /txt/) {
     push @arrivals, $shortname;
  }
}

Then sort @arrivals any way you want.

Hope this helps.

Russ
