webfolders

[steve]

I'm trying to read and write files in a web folder. I've succeeded in downloading a file from a web folder using the following code. However, I'm unsure as how to copy a file up to the server
Also, is there a way to determine the file attributes without downloading the file etc

private bool CopyFileFromWeb(string from, string to, int bufferSize

bool bOK = false
FileStream file = null
WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create(from)
try

WebResponse result = req.GetResponse()
Stream ReceiveStream = result.GetResponseStream()

Byte[] read = new Byte[bufferSize]
int bytes = ReceiveStream.Read(read, 0, bufferSize)

// open the destination strea
file = new FileStream(to,FileMode.CreateNew,FileAccess.Write)

while (bytes > 0

file.Write(read,0,bytes)
bytes = ReceiveStream.Read(read, 0, bufferSize)

bOK = true
}
catch(Exception exc)

// deal with error her

finall

if (file != null
file.Close()

return bOK
}

Take a look at the WebClient class. It has download and upload methods. You
can also send an HTTP HEAD request with HttpWebRequest to get the header
info containing file attributes.
