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.

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.

May I say how nice it is to work with components so complete and self-explanatory that using them in my application is as instinctive as though I wrote them myself?

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

...your service has been phenomenal. It's always quick and you are there when I need you.

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.

...wodFtpDlx was exactly what I needed, it worked, and it was priced right...

...with WOD's excellent support I was able to bypass Winsock and focus on the task at hand...

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

Fantastic product by the way, it has helped us tremendously on a daily basis. Keep up the good work.
