ftpStatusBar1 Component

Question

Status, byte size, transfer rate, etc does not show. Progressbar is the only thing thats working. In addition if I click anywhere in the form, the app is non-responsive. Please advise.

exFTPConnection1.UserName = "username";
                exFTPConnection1.Password = "mypass";
                exFTPConnection1.ServerAddress = "255.255.255.255";
                exFTPConnection1.Connect();
exFTPConnection1.DownloadFile(myfile.ToString(), myfile.ToString());
exFTPConnection1.Close();

Thx,

Answer 1

While you are transferring a file it will be unresponsive as you are using a synchronous method for the transfer. Take a look at the asynchronous example in the Example Viewer to see how you can make a form responsive during a transfer. That might also be causing problems re getting updates - we'll take a look at that.

Answer 2

Asynchronous method works great!
