Help! Need Info on file transfer mechanism with resume download option.
-
Hi, I am interested in developing a file transfer library for use with C++ applications. I need information on how the "resume" feature in download managers like DAP, star-downloader etc work. I would be grateful if someone could direct me to the relevant windows APIs or to some existing open-source projects addressing this issue.

Have you looked at WGet[^] it's what I use at home for any large downloads.

There are a couple of articles here at CP, Pause & Resume at Protocol level. (You can implement it in any language)[^]
I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:

Hey, thanks for the help. I will take a look at both. By the way FYI also take a look at "True Downloader" it's an open-source download manager written in VB 6.0!

I like VB, but that just seems like an application that's steping out of VBs purview. WGet is Open Source, written C++ and is cross platform. Its a command like application that can set it self to run in the back ground which is very cool... :) Good luck with True Downloader, hope it works well for you. :cool:
