Using BITS to upload a file.

UJ
I'm using the MS wrapper for BITS (Microsoft.MSDN .Samples.BITS) and I don't
see any way to upload a file. Does anybody know of how to do that?

TIA - Jeff

Jeff,
I'm using the MS wrapper for BITS (Microsoft.MSDN .Samples.BITS) and I
don't see any way to upload a file. Does anybody know of how to do that?


I'm not familiar with the managed code wrapper you mentioned, but BITS
(Background Intelligent Transfer Service) does support uploads since version
1.3. Here's the documentation on MSDN:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...start_page.asp

Whenever you create a new BITS job, you specify the job type. Normally this
is BG_JOB_TYPE_DOW NLOAD (I'm talking about native code here), but you could
also specify BG_JOB_TYPE_UPL OAD and then continue from there. If your
managed code wrapper doesn't support this, them you might need to call the
APIs directly.

Note that the BITS upload protocol is non-standard, although this shouldn't
be a problem if you use IIS with the BITS ISAPI extension installed. The
upload protocol itself is described here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...d_protocol.asp

Hope this helps.

Do anybody have any C# code that will upload a file using BITS? I'm reading
the documentation and it would take me a while to go through it all. I just
want to upload a single file to our server.

TIA - Jeff.

Situation: I have to connect with my Windows 2000 server using VS.NET 2003 and C# and connect to a remote Linux server at another company's office and query their XML file. Their file may be updated every hour or so. How can I do this easily? I would like to use secure communication even encryption if possible. I would query and insert locally only the newest records found in that XML file to an xml or MS access db.

I am using the code example listed on Microsofts web page at: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;323245 I noticed after testing that my IE 6.0.2800 is taking anywhere from 1 minute 15 seconds to upload a 50 MB file whereas Netscape Communicator is taking 10 seconds to upload the same file. The file is identical after uploading in either browser. Why would Netscape be so much faster?

Hi All, Below is the code which I am using to upload a jpeg file to the server. But the problem I am facing is that it is not copying the entire contents of the image file to the webserver and it doesn't works on IE. Please, help me out as I am new to this and would be highly thankful if anyone has running code for uploading image files to the server using CGI either Perl or C.

Note: You may skip to the end of the article if all you want is the perl code. Introduction Uploading files from a local computer to a remote web server has many useful purposes, the most obvious of which is the sharing of files. For example, you upload images to a server to share them with other people over the Internet.

You may be wondering why you would want to put your files “into” the database, rather than just onto the file-system. Well, most of the time, you wouldn’t. In situations where your PHP application needs to store entire files, the preferred method is to save the file onto the server’s file-system, and store the physical location of the file in your database. This is generally considered to be the easiest and fastest way to store files. ...

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,...
