Catalyst File Transfer Control

The SocketTools File Transfer components enable developers to easily integrate file transfer functionality within their applications. The standard FTP and HTTP protocols are used for sending and receiving files over the Internet and corporate intranets, with support for secure connections using SSL/TLS and SSH. The product includes both .NET and ActiveX components for 32-bit and 64-bit development and can be used with most software development tools.

Designed specifically for rapid application development, the File Transfer component provides a flexible, comprehensive interface without requiring that the developer use several different components and write additional code to integrate them. A simpler, unified interface means fewer lines of source code, less complexity and reduced maintenance, allowing developers to focus on their core application.

Advanced features, such as proxy connections and secure encrypted connections, are also part of the standard feature set of the component. It can transfer a file with a single method, simply by specifying a URL just as you would in a web browser. Redirection to relocated resources is handled internally, without the need for the application to interpret server responses.

The SocketTools File Transfer components were developed using the core technologies in the SocketTools family of products, and is based on a solid foundation of award-winning software which conforms to standard protocols. The product includes example programs, a printable Developer's Guide and Technical Reference as well as context-sensitive online help. As with all Catalyst components, SocketTools File Transfer is licensed royalty-free, without any runtime licensing fees and includes unlimited technical support for licensed developers.
