Description

Constructor of an FTP object. The FTP object represents the file on the target PC. You work with the file by changing the file object using methods.

If you have one target PC object, or if you designate a target PC as the default one in your system, use the syntax

file_object=xpctarget.ftp

If you have multiple target PCs in your system, or if you want to identify a target PC with the file object, use the following syntax to create the additional file objects.

file_object=xpctarget.ftp('mode', 'arg1', 'arg2')

Examples

In the following example, a file object for a target PC with an RS-232 connection is created.

f=xpctarget.ftp('RS232','COM1','115200')

f =
	xpctarget.ftp

Optionally, if you have an xpctarget.xpc object, you can construct an xpctarget.ftp object by passing the xpctarget.xpc object variable to the xpctarget.ftp constructor as an argument.

>> tg1=xpctarget.xpc('RS232','COM1','115200');
>> f2=xpctarget.ftp(tg1)
 
f2 =
 
	xpctarget.ftp
