FTP with Indy Components

Hi,

I am using BDS 2006 which has all the Indy components and would
like to use the FTP client to send a file from my application to
my website and to download another file, but I'm not sure which
components I need to use and how to set them up etc.
Is there a tutorial I could look at, or has someone some sample
code to get me started, please.

Thanks,

David

Considering that you want to work with the client side of the FTP protocol,
you would use the client-side FTP component - TIdFTP.

Thanks Remy,

I wasn't sure whether it needed any other components to work with it. I assume from your reply that it doesn't.

Cheers,

Can anyone point me to some code examples using TIdFTP to
transfer a file from aan application to and from a website?

Thanks,

David

That depends on what you want to do with it exactly.  It can be used by
itself.  It can be combined with an SSL IOHandler in order to enable
encrypted connections.  It can be combined with a Compression Intercept to
enable compressed transfers.

Hi Remy,

I want to be able to upload a file to my website and download
another from an application. The file name will be fixed and
it will only be to the one site.
As to the other point, I haven't tried the Indy examples. Where can I find them?

Cheers,

David

Did you look at Indy's own demos yet?

Ok, so what exactly are you having a problem with?

On Indy's website.

Thanks. I'll have a look at that. it will probably tell me what I
want to know.

The documenation is a good place to start.

To start an Indy FTP uploading function do the following:
1.- Insert Indy FTP component in the main Form
2.- Press F1 (help) to learn about it, you may see below some examples
working asyncronous (events).

void ftp_indy_connect( void )
{
glob_ftp.tocc = 0;
Form1->IdFTP1->Host = glob_genconfig.ftp;
Form1->IdFTP1->Port = 21;
Form1->IdFTP1->User = glob_genconfig.ftpusr;
Form1->IdFTP1->Password = glob_genconfig.ftppsw;
Form1->IdFTP1->Connect(4000);
}

void ftp_indy_oper( void )
{
char st1[MAXSTRING];

switch ( glob_ftpstat )
       {
       case FTP_NC:     // Sin conexi�n
            Form1->FTP_Status->Font->Color = clBlack;

            if ( (glob_popstat != POP_NC) || (glob_smstat != SM_NC) )
               break;
            if ( (glob_xxfptrin != glob_xxfptrout) &&
(glob_ftp.send != 0) )
               {
               glob_ftpstat = FTP_IC;
               glob_ftp.tocc = 0;
               ftp_indy_connect();

Hi Remy,

I have downloaded the demos and found them very helpful. I find it
a lot easier and get a lot more info from a code example that I
do from a set of definitions. Perhaps the documentation that I
have is not all that is available, but it is fine if you are
already familiar with the components and know how to use them.
Although the demos were in Delphi they allowed me to write my
own code very quickly, in bds 2006 and get it working.

Thanks for the help,

David
