Tracking Progress of an FTP Download or Upload

Use the StartTransfer, Transfer, and EndTransfer events to track the progress of a upload or download (i.e. transfer). Here is a basic example:


Ftp client = new Ftp();
string currentFile = "C:/path/to/my.file";
client.OnStartTransfer += (obj, ev) =>
{
  Console.WriteLine("Starting transfer of " + currentFile + (ev.Direction == 1 ? " from server to client." : " from client to server."));
};
client.OnTransfer += (obj, ev) =>
{
  Console.WriteLine("Transfer of " + currentFile + " is " + ev.PercentDone + "% complete.");
};
client.OnEndTransfer += (obj, ev) =>
{
  Console.WriteLine("Ending transfer of " + currentFile + (ev.Direction == 1 ? " from server to client." : " from client to server."));
};

// ... some other code ...

client.RemoteFile = currentFile;
client.Download();
