    SendCommand method
    In This Topic

    Description

    Sends a custom command to the remote server, and returns the complete reply.

    The returned string may contain more than a single line and is always a synchronous (blocking) call. This means that even if the BackgroundProcessing property is set to true, the Xceed FTP Library will wait until it has received a reply from the FTP server.

    This method can only be used when the CurrentState property's value is fcsConnected.

    Parameters 

    Parameter Description
    sCommand  The FTP command to send.
    psReply  The complete text of the reply received from the FTP server in response to the command.

    Remarks

    Methods that send the PWD command do not report errors in the case where the PWD command fails. 

    Declaration
