Thanks, Neville buddy! I find they are all written in C# or based on MFC classes. Are there some FTP client library that is written in stardard C/C++ and not based on MFC? I want the library easy to port on different platforms. regards, Geo

Hello, everyone! I am writing a FTP client and I do not want to write the program from scratch. :) I want to know whether there are some free and open source FTP library that I can use to build my FTP client program quickly? For example, the library provides functions that can be used directly to upload a file, or connect to specified site. Better the FTP library is based on standard C/C++ and not based on MFC. regards, Geo
ftplib ftplib is a set of routines that implement the FTP protocol. They allow applications to create and access remote files through function calls instead of needing to fork and exec an interactive ftp client program. http://nbpfaus.net/~pfau/ftplib/

Thanks, markkuk buddy! After a quick view of the libraty, I have two more questions, 1. I can not find the source codes of the library and only the header files and .a or .dll file. 2. The library is too large and is general purpose, but I only want to use FTP utility, so are there some simple and tiny library that only provide FTP client function? Can you help? regards, Geo
