FTPPutFile

[levinll]

According to the documentation that I can find about FTPPutFile, a return value of 1 indicates that the operation was successful. I was curious whether this means that the correct # of bytes were transferred or that just a file was created based on the passed parameter ?

levinll,

I'm not sure what do you mean. But let's look into the MSDN documentation. Here is the declaration:

BOOL WINAPI FtpPutFile(
HINTERNET hConnect,
LPCTSTR lpszLocalFile,
LPCTSTR lpszNewRemoteFile,
DWORD dwFlags,
DWORD dwContext);

It will only return TRUE (success) or FALSE (fail). If you use other languange (i.e: VB) maybe you have to cast the return value into other value (i.e.: long) then you will get 1 for TRUE, 0 for FALSE.

So it doesn't have any other means except indications of SUCCESS or FAIL

I'm trying to determine if SUCCESS means the file was transferred in it's entirety.

Well, I can't say too much in this case
I think you have to assumed that the file transfered succesfully, or you can try to call GetLastError(). Some of the API function "set" the last error with 0 if the function was succeed.

One more thing. If you need more control, you can use FtpOpenFile and InternetWriteFile. And after the file is written you can re-read the file (InternetReadFile) to confirm
