CFTPTransferDlg provides an MFC dialog which performs
FTP uploads and downloads
similar to the Internet Explorer download dialog as shown below:

To use CFTPTransferDlg in your project simply include FTPTransferDlg.cpp/h
and FTPTransferer.cpp/h from
the test application in your application and #include "FTPTransferDlg.h" in whichever
files you want to use the class in. You should also copy over all the "IDS_FTPTRANSFER_.."
string resources, the IDD_FTPTRANSFER dialog resource and the IDR_FTPTRANSFER_ANIMATION
"avi" resource to your application. Then to bring
up the dialog to upload / download a specific file, just use some code like the
following:
CFTPTransferDlg dlg;
dlg.m_sServer = _T("ftp.some-site.com");
dlg.m_sRemoteFile = _T("/somefile.ext");
dlg.m_sLocalFile = _T("c:\\somfile.ext");
dlg.m_bDownload = TRUE;
dlg.m_bBinary = TRUE;
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
AfxMessageBox("File was downloaded successfully");
Alternatively you can use the CFTPTransferer class (which CFTPTransferDlg
uses internally) in a synchronous non-UI
manner as follows:
CFTPTransferer transfer;
transfer.m_sServer = _T("ftp.some-site.com");
transfer.m_sRemoteFile = _T("/somefile.ext");
transfer.m_sLocalFile = _T("c:\\somfile.ext");
transfer.m_bDownload = TRUE;
transfer.Transfer();
The enclosed zip file
contains source code for the classes and also includes a VC 6 project file to build a
simple dialog based app which performs FTP uploads and downloads to any FTP
server.
