FTP Suite for REALbasic Released
Add-on solution adds FTP capability to REALbasic applications.
November 6, 2002. Brick, NJ - Pyramid Designs, a software development firm,
has released FTP Suite, a set of classes and code modules that implement
five (soon to be seven) type of FTP operations. After populating the
appropriate properties of the FTP Transfer Class, a single call starts the
required operation.
In release 1.0, FTP Suite can perform the following FTP operations:
Get File - Transfers any number of files from the server to the
local computer.
Put File - Transfers any number of files from the local computer to
the server.
Put Directory - Transfers all the content from a local directory
and copies the entire directory structure to the server.
Delete File - Deletes any number of files on the server.
Delete Directory - Deletes all the files and directories from the
specified server directory.
In an free upgrade expected in December, these capabilities will be
added to FTP Suite:
Get Directory - Transfers all the content from a server directory
and copies the entire directory structure to the local machine.
Get List - Returns a list of all the files and subdirectories in a
given server directory.
Pyramid Design offers two types of licenses:
Professional - $59.95 - allows use in any commercial product or
in-house tool.
Hobbyist - $29.95 - allows use in free or shareware programs.
These are one-time fees that entitle the user to develop any number of
applications using FTP Suite (within the Professional/Hobbyist
restrictions) with no royalties. Additionally, the license provides free
upgrades for the life of the product. Source code licenses are also
available.
Joe Nastasi, developer of FTP Suite: "After searching all over the
REALbasic universe and coming up with a couple of old and unsupported FTP
examples, I decided that the REALbasic community could use a professionally
designed and supported FTP solution."
A demo which contains a seven page programmer's manual and demo program is
