Remarks

Use this command to send an SSH command to the server in the middle of an SFTP session. The command is executed in a secondary channel, so the SFTP connection is not affected.

This method is suitable for simple commands that do not require interaction with the user. The call returns the command output.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a Byte Array value (with length lpSize); after it returns, call the GetLastErrorCode() method to obtain its result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message.
