[Pascal]
procedure DownloadFiles(const RemotePath, RemoteMask: string; const LocalPath: string; Mode: TSBFileTransferMode; CaseSensitive: boolean; CaseConversion: TSBCaseConversion; Recursive: boolean);
procedure DownloadFiles(const RemotePath, RemoteMask: string; const LocalPath: string; Mode: TSBFileTransferMode; CopyMode: TSBFileCopyMode; CaseSensitive: boolean; CaseConversion: TSBCaseConversion; Recursive: boolean);

[PHP]
void DownloadFiles(string $RemotePath, string $RemoteMask, string $LocalPath, integer $Mode, bool $CaseSensitive, integer $CaseConversion, bool $Recursive)
void DownloadFiles(string $RemotePath, string $RemoteMask, string $LocalPath, integer $Mode, integer $CopyMode, bool $CaseSensitive, integer $CaseConversion, bool $Recursive)

[Java]
void downloadFiles(String RemotePath, String RemoteMask, String LocalPath, TSBFileTransferMode Mode, boolean CaseSensitive, TSBCaseConversion CaseConversion, boolean Recursive);
void downloadFiles(String RemotePath, String RemoteMask, String LocalPath, TSBFileTransferMode Mode, TSBFileCopyMode CopyMode, boolean CaseSensitive, TSBCaseConversion CaseConversion, boolean Recursive);

Parameters

RemotePath - the path to remote files to be downloaded.
RemoteMask - the mask to match the remote files to.
LocalPath - local path to store downloaded files.
Mode - specifies what to do if the file with the same name already exists.
CopyMode - specifies file copy mode.
CaseSensitive - specifies whether filename matching [to mask] is case-sensitive.
CaseConversion - specifies whether case conversion must be applied to file names as they are downloaded.
Recursive - specifies if the subdirectories should also be scanned for matching files.

TSBFileTransferMode values:

[.NET] [C++]	[Pascal]	Description
ftmOverwrite = 0	ftmOverwrite	The file will be overwritten
ftmSkip = 1	ftmSkip	The file will be skipped if the file with the same name exists
ftmAppendToEnd = 2	ftmAppend	All data from the source file isappended to the end of the destination file (if itexists). This mode is useful, for example, for updatingthe remote log file.
ftmResume = 3	ftmResume	Resumes the transfer of the file by transferring the data from the source file (starting from position specified in RestartFrom and up to the end) to the destination file (the data is written to position specified in RestartFrom ). This mode is used to resume the broken upload or download. In Resume mode the component compares the sizes of source and destination files (streams). If the size of the destination is smaller than the size of the source, the transfer is restarted from the position equal to the destination size (resuming the broken transfer). Resume mode doesn't compare file times, so your application should only use this mode if it (or the user) knows that the destination file is an incompletely transferred source file, and not, e.g., an older version of the same file.
ftmOverwriteIfDiffSize = 4	ftmOverwriteIfDiffSize	Defines a conditional overwrite onlywhen the file size is different. NOTE: file size isdetermined using the chosen transfer type (ascii/binary).In ASCII mode the file size can be determinedincorrectly, and you should not use conditionaloverwrite then.
ftmSaveWithNewName = 5	ftmSaveWithNewName	When a file has been transferred, and another file with the same name already exists, the new file will be saved with a new name.For each such file an OnFileNameChangeNeeded event is fired.
ftmRenameExistingTarget = 6	ftmRenameExistingTarget	In contrary to the ftmSaveWithNewName option, the existing file will be renamed, while the new file is saved under its original name.For each such file an OnFileNameChangeNeeded event is fired.

TSBFileCopyMode values:

[.NET] [C++]	[Pascal]	Description
fcmCopy = 0	fcmCopy	Simply copy.
fcmCopyAndDeleteImmediate = 1	fcmCopyAndDeleteImmediate	Delete each file immediatly after it has been copied.
fcmCopyAndDeleteOnCompletion = 2	fcmCopyAndDeleteOnCompletion	Delete all files in the directory and its subdirectories after the files have been copied.

TSBCaseConversion values:

[.NET] [C++]	[Pascal]	Description
sccNone = 0	sccNone	Case conversion is not performed
sccLower = 1	sccLower	File names are converted to lowercase on destination system
sccUpper = 2	sccUpper	File names are converted to uppercase on destination system

Description

    Use this method to download one or more files from the server to the local disk (or in virtual file system, if the appropriate file system adapter is used).
    Files are chosen by mask which can be a simple mask, set of masks or regular expression (read more about masks).
    Since SecureBlackbox version 13, file masks in group operations support expressions.
