Parameters

hostname

The hostname of the FTP server to connect to. An IP address can also be used.

port

The port of the FTP server to which to connect to. If 0 is passed, 990 is used if implicitAuthentication is true; otherwise, 21 is used (not applicable to the Compact Framework version).

The verification flags used to verify the FTP server's certificate. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

clientCertificate

The certificate used when connecting to the FTP server. Can be null. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

dataChannelProtection

The DataChannelProtection used during the communication. Ignored if implicitAuthentication is true. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

implicitAuthentication

The active proxy client for connecting to the FTP server.

timeout

The period of time, in seconds, after which an FTP operation should timeout.

passiveTransfer

Boolean value indicating whether the data connection should be established by the FTP server rather than by the client-side.

defaultRepresentationType

The default value indicating how the data is transferred to and from the FTP server.

traceWriter

The System.IO.TextWriter which will trace the communications between the client-side and the FTP server.

synchronizingObject

The object used to automatically redirect events on the main UI thread. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

certificateReceivedCallback

Delegate for CertificateReceived notification. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

certificateRequiredCallback

Delegate for CertificateRequired notification. Not applicable to the Compact Framework version.

byteProgressionCallback

Delegate for ByteProgression notification.

itemProgressionCallback

Delegate for ItemProgression notification.

userParams

Opaque data that will be passed back to the event handler when an event is raised.

filesToReceive

A list of strings representing the files to be gotten. File paths may not start with a \ or a /. If a path represents a folder, it must end with a / or a \.
