    -- In this example, assume that a previous FTP upload failed,

    -- the upload.  When RestartNext is set, the next call
    -- to PutFile (or PutFileFromBinaryData, PutFileFromTextData)
    -- will automatically resume the upload from the point of failure.
    -- (The way it works is that the FTP component sends a "SIZE"
    -- command to the FTP server to find out how many bytes of
    -- the file already exist on the server.  It then begins
    -- uploading from that point.

    -- is automatically set to false.
