Can I use tMap to filter folders from a FTP server?

[Anonymous]

I wanted to copy certain folders from a FTP server to my local computer.

Here is the Talend components I used:

1. tFTPConnection

2. tFTPFileList       -- with the filemask in tFTPFileList, I was able exclude some unwanted folders. In order to exclude all the unwanted files, I used another 2 components:

3. tIterateToFlow:

    filename: ((String)globalMap.get("tFTPFileList_4_CURRENT_FILE"))     -- in this case, the filename is the folder name

    filepath:   ((String)globalMap.get("tFTPFileList_4_CURRENT_FILEPATH"))

4. tMap:    

    use a filter to exclude unwanted file:  !row9.filename.equals("here is the unwanted folder name")

Now if I link tMap's output to tLogRow, I can see the unwanted filenames (folder names) are all gone.

But my question is, how to copy the correct foldes after tMap? Can I just connect tMap to tFTPGet? What should I  do now?

Thanks!

@Moe,from tMap,wirite it it file ,tHashOutput or DB and again read that file and iterate the values and in tFTPGet call that global variable form iterated value as file-mask.

link tMap to a tFlowToIiterate to iterate each folder, eg:
...tMap--tflowToIterate--iterate--tFTPGet.
