Hallo,

is it possible to copy files from a FTP-server to my computer?

How to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Reiner

Yes, I've done that many times. I issue 'ftp' command and then
connect to the server, then continue inputting commands when it
prompts me...

Oh, were you asking how to do this programmatically? There is
no way in C++. You might want to research communication libraries
available for your OS.

How to do this?

Google

No -- those times you thought you were using ftp, you were imagining
it.

How to do this?

That depends on your platform, so you'll really need to discuss it in
a newsgroup devoted to the platform(s) of interest to you.

Surely you could develop a FTP class or plain library from the relevant
RFC. From that class/library you could develop your own client or just
use class instances to transfer files.

You could even look for such a class/library on the web.

FYI - wxWidgets has an FTP class, wxFTP.
