Remarks
The FTP Class supports both plaintext and Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) connections. When connecting over SSL/TLS the SSLServerAuthentication event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The SSLStatus event provides information about the SSL handshake. Additional SSL related settings are also supported via the Config method.
The FTP Class implements a standard FTP client as specified in RFC 959 and RFC 1579 with the added option of SSL security (RFC 2228) in both the protocol and data channels.
The first step in using the class is specifying the RemoteHost, User and Password. The file to upload to or download from is given by the RemoteFile property. The file to download to or upload from is specified by LocalFile. The current path in the server is set by calling ChangeRemotePath. The Passive property is especially useful if the client is behind a firewall, which inhibits incoming connections to higher ports.
If LocalFile is set to something other than an empty string, then files are received in LocalFile, and otherwise data are received through the Transfer event. StartTransfer and EndTransfer are fired at the beginning and end of transmission.
The PITrail event traces the interaction between the client and the server (the FTP protocol interface connection).
Directory listings are received through the DirList event.

Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 24 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 24, $value );
Default Value
true
Remarks
This property controls whether or not to direct the server into a passive mode. Many firewalls will not allow the FTP server to open a connection from outside to the higher ports where the FTP client class expects them to be. If Passive is set to TRUE, the class will use the PASV command instead of the PORT command and thus will direct the server into a passive mode: connections are initiated only by the client.

RemoteFile Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This is the name of the remote file for uploading, downloading, and performing other operations.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getRemoteFile(); public function setRemoteFile($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 26 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 26, $value );
Default Value
''
Remarks
This property contains the name of the remote file to be uploaded or downloaded and is either an absolute file path or a relative path based on the remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath.
A number of methods use RemoteFile as an argument.
Example 1. Setting RemoteFile:
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
FTPControl.Download()
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"
FTPControl.Download()
Note: As long as file masks are supported by the server, then this property will act as a file mask when performing ListDirectory or ListDirectoryLong. If not supported, then ApplyFileMaskLocally could be set to True to filter the results locally.
Example 2. Using RemoteFile as a file mask:
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "*.txt"
FTPControl.ListDirectory()
The following special characters are supported for pattern matching:
? | Any single character. |
* | Any characters or no characters (e.g., C*t matches Cat, Cot, Coast, Ct). |
[,-] | A range of characters (e.g., [a-z], [a], [0-9], [0-9,a-d,f,r-z]). |
\ | The slash is ignored and exact matching is performed on the next character. |
If these characters need to be used as a literal in a pattern, then they must be escaped by surrounding them with brackets []. Note: "]" and "-" do not need to be escaped. See below for the escape sequences:
Character | Escape Sequence |
? | [?] |
* | [*] |
[ | [[] |
\ | [\] |
For example, to match the value [Something].txt, specify the pattern [[]Something].txt.
Data Type
String
RemoteHost Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)

''
Remarks
This property shows the current working directory on the FTP server. It also can be used to change the working directory by setting it to an absolute directory path, or a relative path with respect to the existing value of this property.
If the first two bytes of the new path are "..", then a change to one level higher in the directory tree is performed.
Setting this property causes the class to send the appropriate command to the remote server only if it is connected.
Example 1. Changing Directory:
FTPControl.Logon()
FTPControl.RemotePath = "/home/user"
Data Type
String
RemotePort Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)

Remarks
This is the name of the certificate store for the client certificate.
The SSLCertStoreType property denotes the type of the certificate store specified by SSLCertStore. If the store is password protected, specify the password in SSLCertStorePassword.
SSLCertStore is used in conjunction with the SSLCertSubject property to specify client certificates. If SSLCertStore has a value, and SSLCertSubject or SSLCertEncoded is set, a search for a certificate is initiated. Please see the SSLCertSubject property for details.
Designations of certificate stores are platform dependent.
The following designations are the most common User and Machine certificate stores in Windows:
MY | A certificate store holding personal certificates with their associated private keys. |
CA | Certifying authority certificates. |
ROOT | Root certificates. |
When the certificate store type is PFXFile, this property must be set to the name of the file. When the type is PFXBlob, the property must be set to the binary contents of a PFX file (i.e., PKCS#12 certificate store).

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.
The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.
The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:
Field | Meaning |
CN | Common Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com. |
O | Organization |
OU | Organizational Unit |
L | Locality |
S | State |
C | Country |
E | Email Address |
If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.
Data Type
String
SSLProvider Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getSSLProvider(); public function setSSLProvider($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 86 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 86, $value );
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.
Possible values are:
0 (sslpAutomatic - default) | Automatically selects the appropriate implementation. |
1 (sslpPlatform) | Uses the platform/system implementation. |
2 (sslpInternal) | Uses the internal implementation. |
In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.
When Automatic is selected, on Windows the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used on all platforms.
Data Type
Integer
SSLServerCertEncoded Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This is the certificate (PEM/base64 encoded).
Object Oriented Interface
public function getSSLServerCertEncoded();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 88 );
Default Value
''
Remarks
This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.
When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.
This property is read-only and not available at design time.
Data Type
Binary String
SSLStartMode Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Determines how the class starts the SSL negotiation.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getSSLStartMode(); public function setSSLStartMode($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 115 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 115, $value );
Default Value
0
Remarks
The SSLStartMode property may have one of the following values:
0 (sslAutomatic) | If the remote port is set to the standard plaintext port of the protocol (where applicable), the class will behave the same as if SSLStartMode is set to sslExplicit. In all other cases, SSL negotiation will be implicit (sslImplicit). |
1 (sslImplicit) | The SSL negotiation will start immediately after the connection is established. |
2 (sslExplicit) | The class will first connect in plaintext, and then explicitly start SSL negotiation through a protocol command such as STARTTLS. |
Data Type
Integer
StartByte Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This is the byte index in RemoteFile and LocalFile from which to start a transmission.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getStartByte(); public function setStartByte($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 116 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 116, $value );
Default Value
'0'
Remarks
This property contains a zero-based index in both RemoteFile and LocalFile that determines the point from which the transmission of data begins. This is useful for resuming interrupted downloads and uploads of files from FTP servers.
Once set, the StartByte index is used for all future downloads and uploads. The property must be reset to "0" for normal downloads and uploads.
The type of the property is a string instead of numeric value to allow for certain implementations that expect an alphanumeric marker for the start index.
In the Transfer event, the TransferredBytes parameter will include the bytes skipped (i.e., it will show StartByte more bytes than actually transferred).
Note: Some FTP servers may not support the FTP REST command. If that is the case with the server you are accessing, you will not be able to use the StartByte property.
This property is not available at design time.
Data Type
String
Timeout Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
A timeout for the class.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getTimeout(); public function setTimeout($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 117 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 117, $value );
Default Value
60
Remarks
If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.
If Timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.
The class will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.
If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.
Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.
The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.
Data Type
Integer
TransferMode Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This property includes the transfer mode (ASCII or binary). If the value is 0 (default), the initial server mode will be used.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getTransferMode(); public function setTransferMode($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 118 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 118, $value );
Default Value
0
Remarks
This property specifies the transfer mode, which is either ASCII or binary. The valid options for the TransferMode property are as follows:
tmDefault (0) | The initial mode of the FTP server is taken. No change. |
tmASCII (1) | Files are transferred in ASCII mode (a TYPE A command). |
tmBinary (2) | Files are transferred in binary mode (a TYPE I command). |
Note: It is recommended to use the ChangeTransferMode method instead of setting this property.
Data Type
Integer
User Property (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This property contains the user identifier to use to log in.
Object Oriented Interface
public function getUser(); public function setUser($value);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_get($res, 119 ); ipworksssl_ftp_set($res, 119, $value );
Default Value
''
Remarks
This property contains the user identifier to be used when logging in. It must be set before the class connects to the FTP server.
Data Type
String
Abort Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
The method aborts the current upload or download.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doAbort();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_abort($res);
Remarks
This method sends an ABOR command to the FTP server. It is used to interrupt file uploads and downloads.
Append Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method appends data from LocalFile to a RemoteFile on an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doAppend();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_append($res);
Remarks
This method causes the server-data transfer process (DTP) to accept the data transferred through the data connection and to store the data in a file on the server site. If the file specified in the pathname exists on the server site, then the data shall be appended to that file; otherwise, the file specified in the pathname shall be created on the server site. This method is similar to the Upload method, but the local file specified by LocalFile is appended to RemoteFile on the server as opposed to replacing it, as with the Upload method. RemoteFile is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the current path set by ChangeRemotePath. The server will create a file with that name if it doesn't already exist (similar to upload). If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
ChangeRemotePath Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method changes the current path on the FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doChangeRemotePath($remotepath);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_changeremotepath($res, $remotepath);
Remarks
This method changes the current path on the FTP server to the specified RemotePath. When called, the class will issue a command to the server to change the directory. The RemotePath parameter may hold an absolute or relative path.
Absolute Paths
If the path begins with a /, it is considered an absolute path and must specify the entire path from the root of the server. For instance:
component.ChangeRemotePath("/home/testuser/myfolder");
Relative Paths
If the path does not begin with a /, it is considered a relative path and is resolved in relation to the current directory. For instance, a value of myfolder will indicate a subfolder of the current directory. The special value .. refers to the parent directory of the current path. For instance:
//Change to the 'myfolder' sub-directory
component.ChangeRemotePath("myfolder");
//Navigate up two levels and then into the 'another/folder' path.
component.ChangeRemotePath("../../another/folder");
ChangeTransferMode Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method changes the transfer mode for the current connection.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doChangeTransferMode($transfermode);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_changetransfermode($res, $transfermode);
Remarks
This method optionally changes the transfer mode used for the connection. The TransferMode parameter indicates the new transfer mode to be used.
In many cases, it is not necessary to explicitly change the transfer mode; however, the binary transfer mode is useful to ensure that files are preserved byte-for-byte during the transfer. For instance, when uploading or downloading images or archives, the binary transfer mode will ensure that no line-ending transformations are performed by the server before data are transmitted.
Valid values for the TransferMode parameter are as follows:
0 (Default) | Files are transferred using the default mode of the FTP server. |
1 (ASCII) | Files are transferred in ASCII mode (sends the command "TYPE A"). |
2 (Binary) | Files are transferred in Binary mode (sends the command "TYPE I"). |
CheckFileExists Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method returns True if the file specified by RemoteFile exists on the server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doCheckFileExists();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_checkfileexists($res);
Remarks
This method sends a command to the server to determine if the file specified by RemoteFile exists.
If the file exists, this method returns true, otherwise it returns false. RemoteFile must be specified before calling this method. For instance:
component.ChangeRemotePath("/home/testuser/myfolder");
component.RemoteFile = "test.txt";
if(component.CheckFileExists()) {
//Do something
}
Config Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doConfig($configurationstring);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_config($res, $configurationstring);
Remarks
Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.
These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.
To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).
To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.
Connect Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method connects to the FTP server without logging in.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doConnect();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_connect($res);
Remarks
This method establishes a connection with the RemoteHost but does not log in. In most cases, it is recommended to use the Logon method, which will both establish a connection and log in to the server.
This method may be useful in cases in which it is desirable to separate the connection and logon operations, for instance, confirming that a host is available by first creating the connection.
DeleteFile Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method removes a file specified by FileName from an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doDeleteFile($filename);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_deletefile($res, $filename);
Remarks
This method is used to remove a file specified by FileName from an FTP server. The remote file or directory specified by FileName is deleted. FileName is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to remote path set by ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
Disconnect Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method disconnects from the server without first logging off.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doDisconnect();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_disconnect($res);
Remarks
This method immediately disconnects from the server without first logging off.
In most cases, the Logoff method should be used to log off and disconnect from the server. Call the Disconnect method in cases in which it is desirable to immediately disconnect without first logging off.
DoEvents Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Processes events from the internal message queue.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doEvents();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_doevents($res);
Remarks
When DoEvents is called, the class processes any available events. If no events are available, it waits for a preset period of time, and then returns.
Download Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method downloads a RemoteFile from an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doDownload();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_download($res);
Remarks
This method is used to download the remote file specified by RemoteFile to the local file specified by LocalFile, or it is retrieved through the Transfer event if the LocalFile property is "" (empty string). RemoteFile is either an absolute path on the server or a path relative to a remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
Example (Download a File)
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
FTPControl.Download()
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"
FTPControl.Download()
Interrupt Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Interrupt the current method.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doInterrupt();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_interrupt($res);
Remarks
If there is no method in progress, Interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.
ListDirectory Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
List the current directory specified by ChangeRemotePath on an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doListDirectory();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_listdirectory($res);
Remarks
This method is used to list the directory (or file mask) specified in RemoteFile. RemoteFile is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the remote path set by ChangeRemotePath. The file listing is received through the DirList event.
Similar to ListDirectoryLong, except that only file names are returned.
Note: Because RemoteFile acts as a file mask, to retrieve a complete directory listing RemoteFile should be set to an empty string or a mask like "*". If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
ListDirectoryLong Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method lists extended directory information for the remote path specified by calling ChangeRemotePath .
Object Oriented Interface
public function doListDirectoryLong();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_listdirectorylong($res);
Remarks
This method is used to request a directory (or file mask) listing specified in RemoteFile. RemoteFile is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath. The file listing is received through the DirList event. Extended file information is returned.
Note: Because RemoteFile acts as a file mask, to retrieve a complete directory listing RemoteFile should be set to empty string or a mask like "*". If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
Logoff Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method is used to log off from the FTP server by posting a QUIT command.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doLogoff();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_logoff($res);
Remarks
This method is used to log off from the FTP server by posting a QUIT command. If that fails, the connection is terminated by the local host.
Logon Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method is used to log on to the FTP RemoteHost using the current User and Password .
Object Oriented Interface
public function doLogon();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_logon($res);
Remarks
This method is used to log on to the FTP server using the current User and Password. If TransferMode is not 0 (Default), then the FTP transfer mode is set to the appropriate value.
Example (Logging On)
FTPControl.RemoteHost = "ftpserver"
FTPControl.User = "username"
FTPControl.Password = "password"
FTPControl.Logon()
MakeDirectory Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)

Object Oriented Interface
public function doMakeDirectory($newdir);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_makedirectory($res, $newdir);
Remarks
This method is used to create a directory with a path specified by NewDir on the FTP server. NewDir is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the remote path that is set by calling ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
Note: When MakeDirectory is called, RemoteFile is changed to NewDir.
QueryFileSize Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This returns the size of the file specified by RemoteFile .
Object Oriented Interface
public function doQueryFileSize();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_queryfilesize($res);
Remarks
This method sends the SIZE command to the server to obtain the size (in bytes) of the file specified by RemoteFile.
RemoteFile must be specified before calling this method. For instance:
component.ChangeRemotePath("/home/testuser/myfolder");
component.RemoteFile = "test.txt";
long myFileSize = component.QueryFileSize();
If RemoteFile does not exist on the server, the class fails with an error.
QueryFileTime Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This returns the modified time of the file specified by RemoteFile .
Object Oriented Interface
public function doQueryFileTime();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_queryfiletime($res);
Remarks
This method sends the MDTM command to the server to obtain the modified time of the file specified by RemoteFile.
The time returned by this method will be converted to the local timezone. RemoteFile must be specified before calling this method. For instance:
component.ChangeRemotePath("/home/testuser/myfolder");
component.RemoteFile = "test.txt";
string myModifiedTime = component.QueryFileTime();
The FileTimeFormat configuration setting controls the format of the returned value.
QueryRemotePath Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This queries the server for the current path.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doQueryRemotePath();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_queryremotepath($res);
Remarks
This method queries the server for the current path. When called, the class will issue a command to the server to retrieve the current path value. The return value of this method is the path returned by the server. For instance:
string remotePath = component.QueryRemotePath();
RemoveDirectory Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This removes a directory specified by DirName from an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doRemoveDirectory($dirname);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_removedirectory($res, $dirname);
Remarks
This method is used to remove a directory with path specified by DirName from the FTP server. DirName is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
RenameFile Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This changes the name of RemoteFile to NewName .
Object Oriented Interface
public function doRenameFile($newname);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_renamefile($res, $newname);
Remarks
This method is used to change the name of a remote file, specified by RemoteFile to NewName. RemoteFile and NewName are either absolute paths on the server, or a path relative to a remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
Reset Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Reset the class.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doReset();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_reset($res);
Remarks
This method will reset the class's properties to their default values.
SendCommand Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Sends the exact command directly to the server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doSendCommand($command);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_sendcommand($res, $command);
Remarks
This method sends the command specified by Command to the server exactly as it is provided. Use this method to send additional or custom commands directly to the server.
After calling this method check the LastReply property and/or monitor the PITrail event to obtain the server's response.
StoreUnique Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method uploads a file with a unique name to an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doStoreUnique();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_storeunique($res);
Remarks
This method is used to upload a file with a unique name to an FTP server. This is similar to the Upload method, but the server determines a unique name for the LocalFile to be saved on the current directory set by calling ChangeRemotePath. The server includes the new name of the file in its response. The user should check the PITrail event, or LastReply property to retrieve this generated filename.
Upload Method (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This method uploads a file specified by LocalFile to an FTP server.
Object Oriented Interface
public function doUpload();
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_do_upload($res);
Remarks
This method uploads a local file specified by LocalFile to the remote file specified by RemoteFile. RemoteFile is either an absolute path on the server, or a path relative to the remote path set by calling ChangeRemotePath. If no FTP session is in place, one is automatically created by first calling the Logon method.
If you want to append to a server file, please refer to the Append method.
Example 1: Upload a File
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "remotefile.txt"
FTPControl.Upload()
FTPControl.LocalFile = "C:\localfile2.txt"
FTPControl.RemoteFile = "folder/remotefile2.txt"

The StartTransfer and EndTransfer events mark the beginning and end of the event stream.
The DirEntry parameter contains the filename when ListDirectory is called and includes extended file information when ListDirectoryLong is called.
The class tries to fill out the FileName, IsDir, FileSize, and FileTime parameters when calling the ListDirectoryLong method. Except for FileName, these parameters are empty when a short "List Directory" is performed.
In Unix systems, the date is given in two types of formats: If the date is in the past 12 months the exact time is specified and the year is omitted. Otherwise, only the date and the year, but not hours or minutes, are given.
EndTransfer Event (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This event is fired when a file finishes downloading or uploading.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireEndTransfer($param);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_register_callback($res, 3, array($this, 'fireEndTransfer'));
Parameter List
'direction'
Remarks
The EndTransfer event fires when a Data Interface connection is closed. This occurs when the file finishes transferring or a directory listing is finished.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
Error Event (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Information about errors during data delivery.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireError($param);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_register_callback($res, 4, array($this, 'fireError'));
Parameter List
'errorcode'
'description'
Remarks
The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.
The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.
PITrail Event (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
This event traces the commands sent to the server, and the respective replies.

public function firePITrail($param);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_register_callback($res, 5, array($this, 'firePITrail'));
Parameter List
'direction'
'message'
Remarks
The PITrail event is useful for debugging purposes. It shows all of the interactions between the client and the server, line by line.
The Message parameter contains the full text of the message. The Direction parameter shows the originator of the message:
0 (Client) | The Message originates from the client. |
1 (Server) | The Message originates from the server. |
2 (Info) | The Message is an informative message originating from the client software (the class code). |
SSLServerAuthentication Event (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)
Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.
Object Oriented Interface
public function fireSSLServerAuthentication($param);
Procedural Interface
ipworksssl_ftp_register_callback($res, 6, array($this, 'fireSSLServerAuthentication'));
Parameter List
'certencoded'
'certsubject'
'certissuer'
'status'
'accept'
Remarks
During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.
When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.
SSLStatus Event (IPWorksSSL_FTP Class)

Text contains the portion of the file data being delivered.
The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.
The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.
Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
Config Settings (FTP Class)
The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.FTP Config Settings
Note: This configuration setting will be ignored if ActiveModePORTAddress is also specified.
This configuration setting must be used in conjunction with PortRange to ensure that the correct port is used by the client.
In many cases, FTP servers are not configured to return a valid public IP in the PASV response. When Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) is used any network address translation (NAT) done by the firewall cannot occur. The result is the client may receive an IP that is not accessible.
This setting is designed to allow the connection to succeed in as many cases as possible. When the IP for the data connection is received from the server, the class will inspect the value. If the received value is not within the known private IP ranges, the class will use it, assuming it is a valid public IP. If the received value is a private IP, the class will instead assume the data connection should be established to the same IP as the command connection (true in almost all cases).
When this setting is False, the class will not perform any checks on the received value. When set to False, UseRemoteHostAddressForPassive is applicable.
In the case that DILinger is True (default), follow two scenarios to determine how long the connection will linger. In the first scenario, if DILingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, DILingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified DILingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (by a client acknowledgment, for example), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
This setting applies only when calling QueryFileTime. It does not apply to the FileTime parameter of the DirList event.
The range is provided as start-end, for instance: "1024-" stands for anything higher than 1024, "1024-2048" stands for ports between 1024 and 2048 inclusive, "4000-4010, 50000-50010" stands for ports between 4000 and 4010 or between 50000 and 50010.
When set to True, set RemoteFile to the filemask and call either ListDirectory or ListDirectoryLong. There is no difference between the two methods when this setting is enabled.
When set to True, set RemoteFile to the file or folder you wish to get information about and call either ListDirectory or ListDirectoryLong. There is no difference between the two methods when this setting is enabled. When both UseMLSD and UseMLST are set, UseMLSD takes precedence.
Note: Using AUTH SSL instead of AUTH TLS is strongly discouraged because of potential security vulnerabilities. If you must use this configuration setting, please do so very carefully.
When this setting is False (default) and AutoSelectDataIP is also False, the class will use the IP address returned by the server when establishing a data connection.
This setting is not applicable when Passive is set to False (Active mode).
TCPClient Config Settings
If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
0 | No firewall (default setting). |
1 | Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80. |
2 | Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
3 | Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
10 | Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080. |
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.
Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.
In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.
In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.
The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).
Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.
In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.
If the class is connected, the LocalHost setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).
Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by LocalPort after the connection is established.
LocalPort cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.
This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.
If an EOL string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.
If no EOL is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the DataIn event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.
The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.
www.google.com;www.nsoftware.com
Note: This value is not applicable in Java.
By default, this config is set to false.
0 | IPv4 Only |
1 | IPv6 Only |
2 | IPv6 with IPv4 fallback |
SSL Config Settings
When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the SSLStatus event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.
Enabling this setting has no effect if SSLProvider is set to Platform.
The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g. 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1 etc). OpenSSL recommends to use the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
sequences. Before, between, and after the certificates text is allowed which can be used e.g. for descriptions of the certificates. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.
The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".
By default OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.
If set to true, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:
- The target host name is the same.
- The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
- The application process that calls the function is the same.
- The logon session is the same.
- The instance of the class is the same.
The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.
The default value is:
/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp .. d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA -----END CERTIFICATE-----
When set to 0 (default) the CRL check will not be performed by the class. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.
This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.
When set to 0 (default) the class will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.
This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.
Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the SSLStatus event.
Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.
When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList config setting.
By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").
The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.
Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.
Example values when SSLProvider is set to Platform:
obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*");

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols) only the following cipher suites are supported:
- TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
- TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
- TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256
SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.
Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:
TLS1.3 | 12288 (Hex 3000) |
TLS1.2 | 3072 (Hex C00) (Default) |
TLS1.1 | 768 (Hex 300) (Default) |
TLS1 | 192 (Hex C0) (Default) |
SSL3 | 48 (Hex 30) [Platform Only] |
SSL2 | 12 (Hex 0C) [Platform Only] |
SSLEnabledProtocols - TLS 1.3 Notes
By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the SSLProvider is set to Automatic for all editions.
In editions which are designed to run on Windows SSLProvider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is only supported on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.
If set to 1 (Platform provider) please be aware of the following notes:
- The platform provider is only available on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up.
- SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
- If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 the above restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.
SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:
SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the SSLProvider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and SSLProvider needs to be set to platform.
This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the SSLServerAuthentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.
When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffice for debugging purposes. When writing to this file the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.
Note: This setting is only applicable when SSLProvider is set to Internal.
Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:
server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");
Note: For server components (e.g.TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example:

0x80000000 | Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN not-matching server name). |
This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.
The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw ... eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj -----END CERTIFICATE----- \r \n -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp .. d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA -----END CERTIFICATE-----
When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the class fails with an error.
The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance:
component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal;
component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2
component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa");
The default value for this setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.
In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.
The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.
When using TLS 1.2 and SSLProvider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:
- "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
- "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result only some groups are included by default in this setting.
Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used which is not present in this list it will incur an additional round trip and time to generate the key share for that group.
In most cases this setting does not need to be modified. This should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.
The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072
The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

Note: This option is not valid for UDP ports.
Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

FIPS mode can be enabled by setting the UseFIPSCompliantAPI configuration setting to true. This is a static setting which applies to all instances of all classes of the toolkit within the process. It is recommended to enable or disable this setting once before the component has been used to establish a connection. Enabling FIPS while an instance of the component is active and connected may result in unexpected behavior.
For more details please see the FIPS 140-2 Compliance article.
Note: This setting is only applicable on Windows.
Note: Enabling FIPS-compliance requires a special license; please contact sales@nsoftware.com for details.
Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.
On Windows, this setting is set to false by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to true by default.
To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
