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.

    ftp.put_Username(L"login");
    ftp.put_Password(L"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.

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

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