CFtpConnection::PutFile timeout
beluchin
of the status of the transfer?
I am looking for how to control the ftp operations so that they do not take
longer than certain time.
I have the option of doing them on a separate thread but, is there a way of
doing with the CFtpConnection object itself?
Thanks.

You can get some granularity in the transfer if, instead of PutFile(), you
write the file in chunks using something like the following pseudocode:
CFtpConnection::OpenFile(, GENERIC_WRITE, FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY, )
while (more bytes to write && nottimedout)
{
CInternetFile::Write()
}
CInternetConnection::Close

But, I would have no control over the max time the CInternetFile::Write call
may take. What if I want a guarantee that the Write call will not take more
than certain time to complete?

AFAIK, all you can do is monitor from another thread. You'd have to do that
even using FtpPutFile asynchronously.

From various places on the Internet, I found that one can use the
INTERNET_OPTION_SEND_TIMEOUT option to set the timeout on ftp puts:
// //////////////////////////////////////////
CInternetSession session;
session.SetOption(INTERNET_OPTION_SEND_TIMEOUT, 10000); // 10 secs.
CFtpConnection* pftp = session.GetFtpConnection(...);
if ( !pftp->PutFile(...) ) { // how to check what the reason for the failure
was?
...
}
// //////////////////////////////////////////
Two questions:
1. Why wouldn't this work? It does not require a thread to monitor for time
outs (at least in the client code)
2. How to find out what the reason for the failure was inside the if
statement above?
Thank you very much:

That should work fine I would think. Thanks for pointing that out to me.

If (Ftp)PutFile() returns an error, GetLastError() would probably return
ERROR_INTERNET_TIMEOUT.

Sorry for the dumb question but, what is AFAIK?

After some searching on the net I found that apparently, the option
INTERNET_OPTION_SEND_TIMEOUT does not work. Please, see

Thanks.
