Re: Send_File API versus Send API over a Socket

Using FTP is not an option for this particular application.

Looking at the data a little closer in a tool that compares two files...if I look at the data from a copy of the image file that I FTP to the PC and
compare it to the one sent over the socket, I can see where there is a bunch of blank spaces inserted into my file, and it looks like possibly a
carriage return or line feed is being inserted there too.

It has to be a buffer length issue or something like that.

Here's the relevant bit of code:

The variable bufOut is 32,767 bytes long (character field)

D ifsReadLine PR * ExtProc('_C_IFS_fgets')
D inBuffer * Value Options(*String)
D inBufLen 10i 0 Value
D inFilePtr * Value Options(*String)
*------------------------------------------------------------
C Dow ifsReadLine(%Addr(BufOut):
C %Size(BufOut):zp) <> *NULL
C callp(e) SendtheData(socketDescriptor: %Trim(BufOut))
C Eval BufOut = *Blanks
C Enddo
