\section{\class{wxFTP}}\label{wxftp}
+wxFTP can be used to establish a connection to an FTP server and perform all the
+usual operations. Please consult the RFC 959 for more details about the FTP
+protocol.
+
+To use a commands which doesn't involve file transfer (i.e. directory oriented
+commands) you just need to call a corresponding member function or use the
+generic \helpref{SendCommand}{wxftpsendcommand} method. However to actually
+transfer files you just get or give a stream to or from this class and the
+actual data are read or written using the usual stream methods.
+
+Example of using wxFTP for file downloading:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+ wxFTP ftp;
+
+ // if you don't use these lines anonymous login will be used
+ ftp.SetUser("user");
+ ftp.SetPassword("password");
+
+ if ( !ftp.Connect("ftp.wxwindows.org") )
+ {
+ wxLogError("Couldn't connect");
+ return;
+ }
+
+ ftp.ChDir("/pub");
+ wxInputStream *in = ftp.GetInputStream("wxWindows-4.2.0.tar.gz");
+ if ( !in )
+ {
+ wxLogError("Coudln't get file");
+ }
+ else
+ {
+ size_t size = in->StreamSize();
+ char *data = new char[size];
+ if ( !in->Read(data, size) )
+ {
+ wxLogError("Read error");
+ }
+ else
+ {
+ // file data is in the buffer
+ ...
+ }
+
+ delete [] data;
+ delete in;
+ }
+\end{verbatim}
+
+To upload a file you would do (assuming the connection to the server was opened
+successfully):
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+ wxOutputStream *out = ftp.GetOutputStream("filename");
+ if ( out )
+ {
+ out->Write(...); // your data
+ delete out;
+ }
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\wxheading{Constants}
+
+wxFTP defines constants corresponding to the two supported transfer modes:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+enum TransferMode
+{
+ ASCII,
+ BINARY
+};
+\end{verbatim}

-\membersection{wxFTP::SendCommand}
+\membersection{wxFTP::wxFTP}
+
+\func{}{wxFTP}{\void}
+
+Default constructor.
-\func{bool}{SendCommand}{\param{const wxString\&}{ command}, \param{char }{ret}}
+\membersection{wxFTP::\destruct{wxFTP}}
+
+\func{}{\destruct{wxFTP}}{\void}
+
+Destructor will close the connection if connected.
+
+\membersection{wxFTP::CheckCommand}
+
+\func{bool}{CheckCommand}{\param{const wxString\&}{ command}, \param{char }{ret}}
Send the specified {\it command} to the FTP server. {\it ret} specifies
the expected result.
TRUE if the command has been sent successfully, else FALSE.
-% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+\membersection{wxFTP::SendCommand}\label{wxftpsendcommand}
+
+\func{char}{SendCommand}{\param{const wxString\&}{ command}}
+
+Send the specified {\it command} to the FTP server and return the first
+character of the return code.
\membersection{wxFTP::GetLastResult}
\func{const wxString\&}{GetLastResult}{\void}
-Returns the last command result.
+Returns the last command result, i.e. the full server reply for the last
+command.
% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+\membersection{wxFTP::SetAscii}
+
+\func{bool}{SetAscii}{\void}
+
+Sets the transfer mode to ASCII. It will be used for the next transfer.
+
+\membersection{wxFTP::SetBinary}
+
+\func{bool}{SetBinary}{\void}
+
+Sets the transfer mode to binary (IMAGE). It will be used for the next transfer.
+
+\membersection{wxFTP::SetTransferMode}
+
+\func{bool}{SetTransferMode}{\param{TransferMode }{mode}}
+
+Sets the transfer mode to the specified one. It will be used for the next
+transfer.
+
+If this function is never called, binary transfer mode is used by default.
+
+% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

\membersection{wxFTP::SetUser}
\func{void}{SetUser}{\param{const wxString\&}{ user}}
to specify a user and a password.
% ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-\membersection{wxFTP::GetList}
-\func{bool}{GetList}{\param{wxArrayString\& }{files}, \param{const wxString\&}{ wildcard = ""}}
+\membersection{wxFTP::GetDirList}\label{wxftpgetdirlist}
+
+\func{bool}{GetDirList}{\param{wxArrayString\& }{files}, \param{const wxString\&}{ wildcard = ""}}
The GetList function is quite low-level. It returns the list of the files in
the current directory. The list can be filtered using the {\it wildcard} string.
Return value: TRUE if the file list was successfully retrieved, FALSE
otherwise.

+
+\helpref{GetFilesList}{wxftpgetfileslist}
+
+\membersection{wxFTP::GetFilesList}\label{wxftpgetfileslist}
+
+\func{bool}{GetFilesList}{\param{wxArrayString\& }{files}, \param{const wxString\&}{ wildcard = ""}}
+
+This function returns the computer-parsable list of the files in the current
+directory (optionally only of the files matching the {\it wildcard}, all files
+by default). This list always has the same format and contains one full
+(including the directory path) file name per line.
+
+Return value: TRUE if the file list was successfully retrieved, FALSE
+otherwise.
