UploadFileToFTP method

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Remarks

 

Requests to start an uploading session of a given file to a FTP server.

This method can be used in place of the RequestUploadSessionToFTP method when you need to upload a generic file instead of the current editing session.

 

An uploading session can be terminated before completion through a call to the CancelUploadToFTP method.

 

During the execution of the upload session the CallbackPercentage delegate is invoked, with the nOperation parameter set to OPERATION_SOUND_UPLOAD_PERC, in order to notify about the percentage of advancement of the upload session.

 

For further details about callback delegates see the How to synchronize the container application with the API tutorial.
