FtpDLX GetFile needs LocalPath (wodSFTP / wodSFTP.NET / wodSFTPdll)

I am using code with the demo library that looks like the following.

[code]
FtpDLX Ftp1 = new FtpDLX();
...
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(20 * 1024);
Ftp1.LocalPath= . ;
Ftp1.GetFile(ms, var);

[/code]

The above code should not require a local path given
that it is writing to memory.

However if the LocalPath is not set than an exception
is thrown saying that the LocalPath must be set.

I want to verify that it is not writing to the file system
even temporarily.

JSchell,

what exactly does RemotePath argument 'var' point to? What is its value?

Kreso

It is set - I printed it via code. It looks like ./xxx/ where that represents a valid location on the remote machine.

Valid location that points to a remote file, or a remote folder?

If you don't specify filename, only a folder, perhaps that causes trouble?

From your ./xxx/ it looks to me like it's a folder, rigth?

BTW make sure you don't use relative paths ./...., make sure it's absolute /home/joe/xxx

Reason exception was thrown is because component was unable to determine filename of the file to open - because remote path was specified without a filename, and that filename couldn't be resolved from local path too - since stream was used..

You cannot open and read remote folder, if you know what I tried to say.

That doesn't seem likely. If I set the LocalPath to a value
that has does not exist on either the local or remote
machine the code still works.

No, you don't understand what I'm trying to say.

If I do this:

ftp1.GetFile( myfile , / )

then it will work, component will be smart enough to determine to download /myfile from remote side since 'myfile' was filename specified in the line. But,

If I do this:

MS = new MemoryStream
ftp1.GetFile(MS, / )

which file should be downloaded?? That's what you're doing, right? You specified

ftp1.GetFile(MS, ./xxx/ )

so where is filename specified that is to be opened on remote server? You only specified folders. I can't download /xxx/ if that folder, give me exact file inside that folder.

If

I should have specified that more clearly in the example.

It looks like this - I printed it to be sure

Ftp1.GetFile(ms, ./xxx/filename );

Ok, I think I was able to duplicate this problem. It is now fixed - can you please download wodFtpDLX.NET again and try it out?

Make sure Version property returns 1.1.0.25

Let me know how it goes!

Kreso

It now works.
