What's new in this version?
v8.1
IWsftpApi2 interface
This interface adds the ExternalIP property and the SetPortRange method.
ExternalIP property
Allows the SDK to be configured to send the external IP address in the
PORT command. This is helpful for clients that are NAT'd, and especially
useful when those clients are using SSL connections.
SetPortRange method
Allows the SDK to be configured to establish PORT data channel
connections on ports within a specified range. This feature is
used for firewalls that don't support FTP protocol translation,
or when the client is using SSL connections.
v8.01
We have added 3 new samples to the distribution.
C++ - EventSample
This sample demonstrates how to utilize the events fired by the SDK for
logging, canceling, and transfer progress. This sample uses ATL.
C++ - MFCEventSample
This sample demonstrates how to utilize the events fired by the SDK for
logging, canceling, and transfer progress. This sample uses MFC.
Javascript - Javascript.html
This sample demonstrates how to use the SDK from a web page.
v8.0
The WS_FTP Pro SDK v8.0 has been rewritten based on the
WS_FTP Pro v8.x code base. Any applications written with
previous SDK versions will not work with v8.0.
The SDK is implemented as an in-process COM server. This
allows applications to be written in any COM supported language.
SDK supports the following protocols and security extensions:
o FTP – File Transfer Protocol
o FTP/AUTH SSL – FTP over SSL (Explicit)
o FTPS– FTP over SSL (Implicit)
o SSH/SFTP (v3 and v4) – Secure File Transfer
Protocol (SFTP over SSH)
