Demonstrates how to use the DebugLogFilePath property to get information if a Chilkat method crashes or hangs.

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim sftp As ChilkatSFtp
sftp.Initialize("sftp")

'  Insert this code just before the method call that crashes or hangs.
sftp.VerboseLogging = True
sftp.DebugLogFilePath = "/some/file/path/sftp_debug_log.txt"

'  Make the call that crashes or hangs,
'  for example, if the method is DownloadFileByName:

Dim remoteFilePath As String = "..."
Dim localFilePath As String = "..."
success = sftp.DownloadFileByName(remoteFilePath, localFilePath)

'  Note: If the method returns control to your application code, then it did not crash within Chilkat.
'  The DebugLogFilePath property causes all information that would be recorded in the LastErrorText to be emitted to the
'  log file (with immediate file write flushing, i.e. no buffering).  Thus, in a crash situation,
'  the log file will contain information up to the point of the crash.

If success = False Then
    Log(sftp.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If
