ftp - is there a neater way to do this?
I've written a little routine for an app that takes a file from my local computer here and uloads it to my website:
Code:
Dim myFile As IO.File
Dim SW As IO.StreamWriter
SW = myFile.AppendText(cWorkFile)
SW.WriteLine("open www.stingrae.com.au")
SW.WriteLine(cUserID)
SW.WriteLine(cPassword)
SW.WriteLine("put " & cFileName)
SW.WriteLine("quit")
SW.Close()
Dim p As Process
p.Start("ftp -s:" & cWorkFile)
myFile.Delete(cWorkFile)
the code works, but being the perfectionist that i am, i would really prefer a better scenario. like, at the moment, i have no idea whether it connects or works or anything! what's worse, is that if it doesn't work, then the user id & password are both sitting in a plain text file on the local pc! aaaahhhh!!
are there any neat vb.net commands to do this? surely with all the technology now available, puting a file on a web site should be simple? :)
