ftp Unable to use \\?\ in OverbyteIcsFtpMulti

[Mimiko 0]

Hi there,

we're trying to use TIcsFtpMulti to upload and download files from several FTP servers. All's working well except when using file paths starting with \\?\ (for use with devices that have no drive letter and no label assigned). Some methods check for Pos('?', someVar) > 0 to raise an error. Could this possibly be extended to

((Pos('?, someVar) > 0) and (Copy(someVar, 1, 4) <> '\\?\'))

as a workaround? I'm just wondering that nobody else's got there already.

We're using V 9.3 from GetIt Package Manager (D12)  - OverbyteIcsFtpMulti is still V 9.1.

TIA

Michael

Thanks, I'll look at this for next release due this week.

All those checks for ? relate to non-unicode compilers converting UTF8 file names to ANSI with substitutions for bad characters, so I've made them conditional on a new property that will need be enabled for Delphi 2007 and earlier to get the same 'Skipped Inaccessible Unicode Name' error.
