How to send whole file between server's and client's side?

[schnitzell]

Hi,

I need to send file between Client and Service.
How to do it?
For example:
I imagine that I should make public method (on the server side)
returning sometning like StreamReader object,
and on the client side I should to call this method.

Is it good way?

Thanks.
Greetings.

Hello schnitzell,

U should return array of bytes.

For example the server side code

using System.IO;

{
public byte[] Contents;
public string FilePath = @"c:\1.exe";

Stream s = File.Open(FilePath, FileMode.Open);
Contents = new byte[s.Length];
s.Read(Contents, 0, (int) s.Lenght);
s.Close();
// add support of getting file properties)
...
return Contents;
}

On the client perform vice versa operations, create File and write data from
Contents variable
