'Usage
 
Dim instance As AsyncFtpClient

Dim file As String

Dim callback As AsyncCallback

Dim state As Object

Dim value As IAsyncResult

 

value = instance.BeginDeleteFile(file, callback, state)

public IAsyncResult BeginDeleteFile( 

   string file,

   AsyncCallback callback,

   object state

)

Parameters

file

The name of the file to delete. Some FTP servers may be case-sensitive!

callback

Callback method to be called when the asynchronous operation is completed.

state

An object containing state information for this operation.

Return Value

By default, the file will be deleted from the current working folder. If you want to delete the file from another location, you could use the BeginChangeCurrentFolder%M:Xceed.Ftp.AsyncFtpClient.EndChangeCurrentFolder(System.IAsyncResult)% methods and/or BeginChangeToParentFolder%M:Xceed.Ftp.AsyncFtpClient.EndChangeToParentFolder(System.IAsyncResult)% methods to change the current working folder. Absolute paths can also be provided, however some FTP servers might not support absolute paths and different server types may have different ways of representing absolute paths.

The current working folder can be retrieved via the BeginGetCurrentFolder%M:Xceed.Ftp.AsyncFtpClient.EndGetCurrentFolder(System.IAsyncResult)% methods.

When using a callback, the System.IAsyncResult is provided as a parameter. You should call EndDeleteFile in that callback. When NOT providing a callback, you should keep the returned IAsyncResult and call EndDeleteFile with it when ready to complete. In this later case, the call to EndDeleteFile may block until the operation completes.

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
