FTP w CVI

Is there any way I can implement and control FTP transfers from within my CVI application? I want to use FTP to upload/download files to a device I am controlling with my application.

There is always the option of just initiating a batch file from within my application which then executes externally, but I was wondering if there was any better approach with more control and ability to provide users with some status feedback.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks

hi,

You can also use DataSocket libraries to send a file from CVI to an FTP site. Take a look at this posting:

"how to copya file to a FTP server"

Hope that helps.

Hi,

Some libraries have been developed on OpenG for ftp, smtp, and pop. You
could get them and figure out it's been done in LabVIEW then do the same
in CVI.

Check them o
ut at:

Good luck.
