ft_show - Determine attributes of a file or directory

&pagelevel(3)&pagelevel

You can use ft_show() to determine the attributes of an individual file or directory in the remote system. Use the function ft_showdir() to determine the attributes of several files.File names and directory names must not exceed the length specified in the maxrfnsize field of the ft_prop structure (see section “ft_properties - Determine properties of the program interface”).

Syntax

#include <ftapi.h>
int ft_show(const struct ft_admission *admis,    /* input */
              const struct ft_shwpar *par,         /* input */
              struct ft_fileinfo *info,
              struct ft_err *errorinfo,
              void *options);                     /* input */

Parameter

admis

Transfer admission for the remote system (see section “ft_admission” (Specifications concerning the remote system)).

par

Entries for the request which you specify with the structure ft_shwpar:

struct ft_shwpar
{
   int  shwparvers;      /* input */
   char *fn;             /* input */
   char *mgmtpasswd;     /* input */
   char *fud;            /* input */
   int  fudlen;          /* input */
};

The fields of the structure ft_shwpar have the following meanings:

shwparvers

Version of the data structure.
shwparvers must be supplied the value FT_SPARV1 or FT_SPARV2.

fn

Name of the file or directory for which the attributes are to be determined.
Absolute and relative path names are permissible. Relative path names refer to the login name specified in the admission profile, when the FTAC function is used, otherwise to the HOME directory, see "File transfer".

mgmtpasswd

Password of the file or directory if protected by a password.


fud

Address of a data area for the so-called "Further Details" which can indicate a more detailed cause of error if errors occur.
If NULL is specified then no more detailed error cause is output. The fud parameter is only available if shwparvers is set to the value FT_SPARV2 and the options parameter is specified when ft_show is called.

fudlen

Length of the data area for fud.
The fudlen parameter is only available if shwparvers is set to the value FT_SPARV2 and the options parameter is specified when ft_show is called.

info

Area in which the file attributes are written. The structure ft_fileinfo is used:

#define ACC_LEN       65
#define INFO_FN_LEN  257
#define LQ_LEN        81
#define USER_LEN      68
struct ft_fileinfo
{
   int   ftshowivers;                  /* input */
   char  fn[INFO_FN_LEN];              /* output */
   enum  ft_ftype filetype;            /* output */
   enum  ft_charset charset;           /* output */
   enum  ft_rform recordform;          /* output */
   long  recsize;                      /* output */
   enum  ft_available availability;    /* output */
   int   access;                       /* output */
   char  accout[ACC_LEN];              /* output */
   long  size;                         /* output */
   long  maxsize;                      /* output */
   char  legalqual[LQ_LEN];            /* output */
   char  cre_user[USER_LEN];           /* output */
   long  cre_date;                     /* output */
   char  mod_user[USER_LEN];           /* output */
   long  mod_date;                     /* output */
   char  rea_user[USER_LEN];           /* output */
   long  rea_date;                     /* output */
   char  atm_user[USER_LEN];           /* output */
   long  atm_date;                     /* output */
   long  long fsize;                   /* output */
   long  long fmaxsize;                /* output */

maxsize

Permissible file size, or -1 if file size unknown. In systems in which variables of type long have a size of 32 bits, the value for the file size is truncated if it no longer fits in the field. The complete value for the file size can be found in the fmaxsize field.

The specification of this parameter is optional. If you do not require any more precise error information then you can specify the value NULL for errorinfo.

options

The specification of the options parameter is optional. If the value NULL is specified then message activity at the program interface is compatible with that of the program interface of openFT < V10.
Alternatively, it is possible to specify the ft_options structure (see section “ft_options” (Version of the program interface)) to activate the openFT message number scheme as of openFT V10 and the extensions to the function.

Return value

0

No error.

-1

Error. No information supplied about the file.
The error type is stored in errorinfo.
