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

NODEJS_PRELUDE

function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

    var sftp = new chilkat.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:

    var remoteFilePath = "...";
    var localFilePath = "...";
    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) {
        console.log(sftp.LastErrorText);
        return;
    }
