Type
NoneSyntax
object.AppendFile [LocalFile], [RemoteFile]
The AppendFile(object,LocalFile,RemotePath) syntax has these parts:
| object | An expression evaluating to an object of type wodFtpDLX. |

| RemotePath | Optional. A Variant value. Full path to filename where local file will be copied on server. |
Remarks
AppendFile method will initiate copying of file residing on local computer to remote server you connected to, by appending to the end of remote file. During the transfer,
Progress event will be fired several times, depending on your network speed and length of the file. When the copying is completed,
Done event will be fired.
AppendFile cannot be used when
Resume property is set to
True.
If an error occurs during transfer, Done event will be fired immediately containing
ErrorCode and description for the error, and transfer will be aborted. This method can be initiated only when
State property is set to Connected. You cannot send file if wodFtpDLX is busy doing something else.
Although
LocalFile argument MUST contain full path including filename of the file you wish to send, you can omit
RemotePath argument. For instance, you can set
RemotePath = "/tmp"
in which case wodFtpDLX will automatically copy it with the same name as it is locally. If you wish to specify that is copied with some other name, you have to include it in
RemotePath argument.
If you don't specify
LocalFile or
RemotePath argument, wodFtpDLX will use values set in LocalPath and RemotePath properties.
No wildcards can be used for
RemotePath argument. RFC protocol specifications for FTP or SFTP do not allow them.
Do not forget that RemotePath should always specify full absolute path (i.e. /home/joe/something) instead of relative path (i.e. joe/something). LocalFile should also specify full path (i.e. C:\home\joe\something) instead of relative path (i.e. joe\something).Platforms
