Re: RUBY on 64-bit Windows PCs

Yes, I know that I’m iterating ftps here. But, it works on multiple
32-bit machiens. That’s why I’m questioning it. Anyway, is
there such a
thing as “mput” instead of just “put” in RUBY ftp? Without a
block, how
could I send multiple files in ftp?

Good question. I don’t see anything in ftp.rb, but I could be missing
something. I’d be in favor of FTP#mput and FTP#mget methods myself.

Indulge me - try using a non-block form of Net::FTP and see if it makes
any difference:

cindexfiles = Dir.glob(“_-*.pdf”)
cindexfiles.each do |cindexfile|
ftp = Net::FTP.open(‘mpc.bna.com’)
ftp.debug_mode = true
ftp.passive = true
ftp.login(‘peterb’,‘pbail’)
ftp.chdir(‘/data/ps2000test’)
ftp.putbinaryfile(cindexfile)
end

Thanks for your ftp query. And, thanks for your persistence here. But,
sorry, I’m feeling kind of ignorant here. If I have a bunch of PDF files
in a directory, how can I do things to each of them, like ftp, WITHOUT a
block of some sort? Or, without some kind of multi-file ftp put, like
mput??

Cheers,
Peter

Shouldn’t that be something like:

cindexfiles = Dir.glob(“_-*.pdf”)

ftp = Net::FTP.open(‘mpc.bna.com’)
ftp.debug_mode = true
ftp.passive = true
ftp.login(‘peterb’,‘pbail’)
ftp.chdir(‘/data/ps2000test’)

cindexfiles.each do |cindexfile|
ftp.putbinaryfile(cindexfile)
end

ftp.close

Yes, that’s definitely smarter. I thought about it last night, and, of
course, it’s smarter to iterate just the files rather than the whole ftp
transaction. But, anyway, I tried this again this morning with IRB, just
sending one file, not many, and it freezes as soon as I type in the
“end.”
