Title: fgl_getfile/fgl_putfile Post by: Stephen T. on February 28, 2008, 08:43:44 am Paul Sergeant raised a question on the old Genero list back in Feb 2007 re how fgl_getfile/fgl_putfile work - and I can't see an answer to it.
If you copy ascii files using these functions, should they do any DOS/Unix conversion or should you have to do the conversion yourself? Title: Re: fgl_getfile/fgl_putfile Post by: . on February 28, 2008, 09:04:12 am Steve,
Files are transmitted as binary files - we don't look at the content, simply transfer the bytes. Therefore it will be up to you to make the conversion. Title: Re: fgl_getfile/fgl_putfile Post by: Stephen T. on February 28, 2008, 09:13:45 am Thanks Pierre .

Would it be possible at some point for these functions to perform the conversions as they copy the file ? and/or the ability to open a channel that reads/writes direct from/to a file on the client (with the correct EOR marker)? |
