FTP client functionality in .NET (Using Win32 API, good idea?)

Hello,

Our ASP.NET application needs to be able to access remote
ftp site and bring files to the local server. I have ftp
component developed by another company. Basically they're
using Win32 APIs to achieve ftp related tasks. Is this a
good idea to use Win APIs in .NET application? Are there
any issues with that?
Ideally I would like to use 100% managed code, if
possible of course. Does System.Net namespace have any
ftp functionality?

Thanks

hi, everyone. I'm writing a 2-players game that should support network mode. I'm now testing it on 1 PC since I don't have 2.

It works synchronously, but somehow, when I play in client window, both client and server have 17 fps, while when playing in server window, server has 44 fps while client ...

SQL Server will be used as the back-end database to a non trivial client application. In question is the choice of client application: I need to be able to speak intelligently about when one client (MS Access vs ..NET Windows Forms) would be preferred over the other. While I have some good arguments on both sides, I would appreciate your points of view on the topic.

Hi everyone, We have a need to make a Windows Forms (2.0) client application that will be installed on our clients site. The data that the application uses needs to be centrally available to a potentially large number of other sites, which would seem to leave us with our traditional approach, or having a central database server on a dedicated server someplace.

Hi, I'm using an <asp:TreeViewcontrol on my page. Combining the TreeView's OnTreeNodePopulate server-side event handler, and the PopulateOnDemand set to "true" on each node, I get client-based functionality, with callbacks. I can clearly see that the page does not refresh, which is good, as this was my intention to begin with. I also closely inspected the client-side sources (using "Instant

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
