Calling Core FTP from VB or other executables

Post by **ForumAdmin** » Fri Jul 23, 2004 6:34 pm

Just a quick FYI:

When calling Core FTP from Visual Basic program (using the command line options via the Shell command), be sure to make the external call blocking (does not return). With VB, verify the 'Unload Event' settings.

Likewise, if calling from a program or a thread, be sure that it blocks until Core FTP has returned.

It can be done asynchronously but involves process tracking which is beyond the scope of this post.
