    History

    v1.0 (4 January 2000)
    • Initial public release.


    Usage

    To use CFTPTransferDlg in your project simply include FTPTransferDlg.cpp/.h from the test application in your application and #include "FTPTransferDlg.h" in whichever files you want to use the class in. You should also copy over all the IDS_FTPTRANSFER_.. string resources, the IDD_FTPTRANSFER dialog resource and the IDR_FTPTRANSFER_ANIMATION "avi" resource. To bring up the dialog to upload / download a specific file, just use some code like the following:

    CFTPTransferDlg dlg;
    dlg.m_sServer = _T("ftp.some-site.com");
    dlg.m_sRemoteFile = _T("/somefile.ext");
    dlg.m_sLocal = _T("c:\\somfile.ext");
    dlg.m_bDownload = TRUE;
    dlg.m_bBinary = TRUE;
    if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
       AfxMessageBox("File was downloaded successfully");

    You should also have a look at the CFTPDlg::OnDownload() and CFTPDlg::OnUpload() code in the sample application.

    You can avoid having to reconnect to the FTP server multiple times by creating the connection yourself and then calling CFTPTransferDlg::AttachToExisitingHandles before the dialog is show. This means that the dialog will not need to setup the connection itself. Then just implement this logic in a for loop to download whatever files you want.
