[Libssh] sftp - determining directory item types

[Aris Adamantiadis]

Hello,

Re-reading the drafts, it looks like the type of file is included into 
the permission field :

    The `permissions' field contains a bit mask of file permissions as
    defined by posix [1].

also, the diffs from v3 to v4 says

    o  Split the file type out of the permissions field and into it's own
       field (which is always present.)

So, you have to find that information into the bitmask permissions.

Regards,
Aris
