Using the FTP Session Log

See more FTP Examples

The Chilkat FTP component can keep a session log if the KeepSessionLog property is turned on. This is helpful in debugging problems. Chilkat support will usually ask for a session log when working to resolve your problem, because it contains a log of the exact commands sent to the FTP server, and the exact responses received.

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

loFtp = createobject("CkFtp2")

loFtp.Hostname = "ftp.example.com"
loFtp.Username = "login"
loFtp.Password = "password"

// Set the KeepSessionLog property in order to keep a session log.
// The session log will continuously grow in memory.  The
// ClearSessionLog method may be called to clear it.  The session
// logging may be turned on/off at any point.
loFtp.KeepSessionLog = .T.

// Connect and login to the FTP server.
llSuccess = loFtp.Connect()

llSuccess = loFtp.ChangeRemoteDir("junk")

// To clear the SessionLog at any point, call ClearSessionLog:
// call ftp.ClearSessionLog();

// Append moreHamlet.txt to hamlet.txt on the FTP server.
