Beyond Compare output-to ftp-path

[phil]

Hello,

is it possible to send the send the result/output of a compare to a ftp server?

I made a little skript:

criteria rules-based ignore-unimportant

load "sftp://<user>@<server>//path/to/folder_1" "sftp://<user>@<server>//path/to/folder_2"

folder-report layout:xml &
options:display-mismatches-no-orphans &
output-to:"sftp://<user>@<server>//path/to/result_folder/folder_compare_result.xml"

The loading / compare works fine, but the "output-to" only works at local folders.
Is it possible to send the result/output to a ftp-folder like the code above shows?

Greetings

Thanks for the report, Phil. We support loading paths or sessions for the load command, but don't support ftp/remote connections for writing our log or reports. It should be throwing an error message, but that doesn't seem to be popping up in the current version. I'll open a bug tracker entry to investigate. You would need to generate the log locally, and then transfer it to the server as a secondary step.

Alright, thank you!
