Script Events

The Create FTP Directory Action has an extra script event, named NewDirectory, which is called once the new directory has been set up. It allows you to set properties which may not be available in the action, or perform more complicated operations on the new directory.

The NewIISFtpDir parameter is an WMI settings object of type IIsFtpVirtualDirSetting (see the .)

You can retrieve and set the virtual directory's properties directly using the syntax shown in the above example. See the MSDN Documentation for a full list of available properties. Unfortunately, code completion is not available on this object.

There is no need to call the .Put_() method to save any changes which are made (this is done automatically when the event completes.)
