PutFile (myMemoryStream) (wodSFTP / wodSFTP.NET / wodSFTPdll)
I am testing the SFTP component and doing a .PutFile with a memory stream. Between each letter is a NUL. Anyone do this previously and know how to handle this?

Hi Hal,
Here is example how you can use memory stream inside wodSFTP.NET PutFile Method:
[code] Dim dataout As String
dataout = this is some text
Dim ms As System.IO.MemoryStream
ms = New System.IO.MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(dataout))
sftp1.PutFile(ms, /home/test/testfile.txt )[/code]
Can you maybe try something like that and let us know how it goes?
Hope I helped.
Regards,

I have narrowed this issue down to when the file being transfered is in a format other than ASCII.
Is there something I need to do different for transfering unicode?

You only need to change encoding from ASCII to Unicode inside my code. Does it work like that maybe?

When I set to UNICODE is when I get the [NUL]
for example:
t[NUL]e[NUL]s[NUL]t[NUL]

Can you show us maybe your code snippet?

This is my function
[code]Public Function Send(ByVal FileData As MemoryStream, ByVal UserName As String, ByVal Password As String, ByVal Server As String, ByVal Port As Integer, ByVal OutputPath As String)
Dim myFT As New SFTP
Dim toReturn As Boolean
Try
myFT.Hostname = Server
myFT.Login = UserName
myFT.Password = Password
myFT.RemotePath = OutputPath
myFT.Port = Port
myFT.Blocking = True
myFT.Connect()
myFT.TransferMode = SFTP.TransferModes.Binary
myFT.PutFile(FileData)
FileData.Close()
toReturn = True
Catch ex As Exception
toReturn = False
Finally
myFT.Dispose()
End Try
Return toReturn
End Function[/code]
This is my calling event
[code]Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
SFTPFileTransfer.Send(New IO.MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(TextBox1.Text)), _
user , pw , server , 22, _
String.Format( /path/TestFilename{0}.txt , DateTime.Now.ToString( yyyyddMMHHmmss )))
End Sub[/code]

Hal,
Can you please change encoding from Unicode to UTF8 (this is unicode also).
Something like this:[code]System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(TextBox1.Text)[/code]
Does that help maybe?

UTF8 produced the expected results. Thanks.

I really like these products - they are consistently first rate!

This has been, by far, the best experience I have ever had dealing with a support entity in my long career in the technical arena

Count us as a satisfied WeOnlyDo customer. We appreciate your terrific support to get the secure Telnet working properly.

You have been great as far as offering support is concerned and has been extremely responsive to both support requests and suggestions for product enhancements.

Not only wodSFTPdll is excellent, the service you have provided is outstanding and second to none!

...with a minimum of effort as the DLL interface was written with such simplicity...

Just thought you'd like to know that my gateway app with your SMTP Server component held the line against a DDOS attack today...

Your customer service was excellent, and I will look at your products in the future for precisely that reason.

Thanks! We love your software and your great support!

The SFTP ocx is one of the finest pieces of programming I have seen. It worked out of the box...
