tFTPFileList : how to know an entry is a directory

Hi,
I use a tFTPFileList to get files from a FTP server
But there is a subdirectory in the directory listed
=> this subdirectory is considered as a file and generates an error when the job tries to work with this folder as if it was a file
Do you know how to test the type of the element brought by the tFTPFile List ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
To avoid this problem, I propose you to add a mask like "*.gz" for example in your tFTPFileList file mask area 0683p000009MACn.png

I used the component tFTPFileList with the mask "*.*" and it worked for me : the component lists all files with extension, but no directory.
Best Regards,
Stéphane
Edit : Sorry, my files have extension, but not yours! This post didn't answer correctly to your question!

Hi jmd,
Uncheck the option 'File details', it will not list the directories, but only files. For more information, please read the component online manual

I tried that but "File details" option completely changed the values returned in the ((String)globalMap.get("tFTPFileList_1_CURRENT_FILE")) variable returned by the component and it can't be treated correctly (date & time of the file is added in the name of the file)

Sabrina meant to unselect the 'File details' option.
