// This example assumes the Chilkat FTP2 API to have been previously unlocked.
// See FTP2 Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Ftp2 ftp = new Chilkat.Ftp2();

ftp.Hostname = "my-ftp-server.com";
ftp.Port = 21;
ftp.Username = "mFtpLogin";
ftp.Password = "myFtpPassword";
ftp.AuthTls = true;
ftp.Passive = true;

// Connect and login to the FTP server using TLS.
bool success = ftp.Connect();
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Move to the sub-directory (from the FTP user's home directory) where the file is located.
success = ftp.ChangeRemoteDir("temp");
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(ftp.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Stream to this local file:
Chilkat.Stream streamObj = new Chilkat.Stream();
streamObj.SinkFile = "c:/temp/qa_output/penguins2.jpg";

success = ftp.GetFileToStream("penguins2.jpg",streamObj);
if (success == false) {
