);
Parameters
  • listener   The object that receives file transfer progress events.

True if successful, false otherwise (check ULFileTransfer.StreamErrorCode and other status properties for reason).

Remarks

The file specified by the ULFileTransfer.FileName is downloaded by the MobiLink server to the ULFileTransfer.DestinationPath using the ULFileTransfer.Stream, ULFileTransfer.UserName, ULFileTransfer.Password, and ULFileTransfer.Version. Other properties that affect the download are ULFileTransfer.DestinationFileName, ULFileTransfer.AuthenticationParms, ULFileTransfer.ForceDownload and ULFileTransfer.ResumePartialDownload.

To avoid file corruption, UltraLite.NET will download to a temporary file and only replace the destination file once the download has completed.

A detailed result status is reported in this object's ULFileTransfer.AuthStatus, ULFileTransfer.AuthValue, ULFileTransfer.FileAuthCode, ULFileTransfer.DownloadedFile, ULFileTransfer.StreamErrorCode, and ULFileTransfer.StreamErrorSystem.

Errors may result in no data being sent to the listener.
