) 

'Usage
 
Dim instance As FtpClient

Dim source As Stream

Dim remoteFilename As String

 

instance.SendFile(source, remoteFilename)

public void SendFile( 

   Stream source,

   string remoteFilename

)

Parameters

source

A System.IO.Stream whose data is to be sent to the FTP server.

remoteFilename

The filename as it will be stored on the FTP server. Cannot be empty. Some FTP servers may be case-sensitive!

By default, the file will be sent to the current working folder. If you want to send the file to another location, you could use the ChangeCurrentFolder and/or ChangeToParentFolder 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 GetCurrentFolder method.

When using this overload of the SendFile method, in the SendingFile event, the TransferringFileEventArgs.LocalFilename property will be System.String.Empty. This overload will also ignore the value of the PreAllocateStorage property.

The SendFile method will send the PASV or PORT and STOR or APPE commands and optionally the TYPE command to the FTP server.

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
