Robust and comprehensive Secure File Transfer component for .NET
Ultimate FTP is a 100%-managed .NET class library that adds powerful and comprehensive Secure File Transfer capabilities to your .NET applications. In addition it allow you to download, upload by file name, URL, and wild card masks, etc.
WALNUT, CA, July 15, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Ultimate FTP, FTP/SSL (FTPS) .NET Component offers a comprehensive interface for FTP, providing the developer with everything that he needs to incorporate secure file transfers in an application, as well as remote file management using FTP. In addition to downloading and uploading by file name, URL, and wild card masks, the FTP library also supports remote file management functionality such as directory listings and the ability to rename, delete and move files on the server. The component also offers the flexibility, ease of use and rapid development features of a component without the complexities of working with the native socket class or in-depth knowledge of how the File Transfer Protocols are implemented. In most cases, only a few lines of code are required to implement a file transfer in your application. The set of properties and methods is sufficiently rich to enable you to take advantage of features such as the resumption of interrupted transfers, passive mode operation in the presence of firewalls, automatic file verification and support for custom server commands.
We are proud to introduce the Unified Remote File System Architecture that is applied to our critical product lines: Ultimate FTP, Ultimate SFTP, and Ultimate ZIP components. The new architecture makes the management of local files, remote files, and files within archive seamless. As a benefit, you can directly and easily transfer and synchronize files between an FTP file system and other file systems such as SFTP, SCP, ZIP, Disk, Memory, etc. Furthermore, it helps you to reduce efforts for writting separate class for each protocol by using a single base file system class which is used for the SFTP, FTP, ZIP, and Local File Systems to transfer files in the same manner. There is no need to learn more about other protocols, our Ultimate Components do all the complicated works for you. For more information, please check out the Online Help.
The following is a list of some key features of the component:

* Supports event-driven (Asynchronous) and blocking (Synchronous) Design
Most applications written with the FTP component will be synchronous. Synchronous method gives you the ease-of-use, but it can only returns the control back to the caller after it has finished, meaning that it blocks the execution of the caller for a period of time. Using synchronous method is recommended when you only need to execute one FTP operation at a time.
You might decide that your design requires an asynchronous operation when it is needed to manage email messages simultaneously. Asynchronous methods provide a great deal of power. Asynchronous method is executed on a thread separate from the calling thread. Such operation is useful when an FTP operation is time consuming and other codes need to execute without waiting for the initial operation to complete. In addition, the user interface will be most responsive when asynchronous methods are used.
Top
* Flexibility
The FTP component has been designed with a great degree of flexibility and can be used with a wide variety of programming languages and different types of development environments. Available as a managed .NET class, it is fully supported by languages such as Visual Basic, Visual C#, J#, Managed C++, Borland C# Builder, and Delphi.

* Fully Documented
As important as functionality, features and stability are, comprehensive documentation is equally as important to the application developer. This is why the ComponentSoft FTP for .NET product includes a Developer's Guide and a complete Technical Reference which documents every property, method and event supported by the component. A printable version of the documentation is included with the product, as well as context-sensitive online help which can be accessed directly from within the development environment.
