Catalyst File Transfer Control
-
Version
4.5
The Catalyst File Transfer ActiveX control enables
developers to easily integrate file transfer
functionality within their applications. The control
implements the standard protocols for sending and
receiving files over the Internet and corporate
intranets, and can be used in a wide variety of
programming languages which can use ActiveX
components.
Designed specifically for rapid application
development, a single component provides a flexible,
comprehensive interface without requiring that the
developer use several controls and write additional
code to integrate them. A simpler, unified interface
means fewer lines of source code, less complexity and
reduced maintenance costs, allowing developers to
focus on their core application.
Advanced features, such as proxied connections and
secure encrypted connections, are also part of the
standard feature set of the control. The control can
transfer a file with a single method, simply by
specifying a URL, as in a web browser, without the
need to separately supply the protocol, host, port,
file name, and account information. Redirection to
relocated resources is handled internally, without
the need for the application to interpret server
responses.
The Catalyst File Transfer control was 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 and has been market tested since 1995. 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, the File Transfer control is licensed
royalty-free, without any runtime licensing fees.
