OpenChannel Method

Opens a new SSHChannel .

Syntax

 char* OpenChannel(char* lpszChannelType);

Remarks

The SSH 2.0 specification allows for multiple channels to be opened over a single TCP/IP connection. The Channels property represents the channels that are currently open. A new SSHChannel can be opened with OpenChannel.

ChannelType represents the type of SSH channel to be opened. The most common type of channel is "session". To open a channel of type "direct-tcpip", use OpenTcpIpChannel.

If the call to OpenChannel succeeds, an SSHChannel will be created and added to the Channels collection.
