Re: [twsocket] MagFTP Upload Speed

 Also informing you that as far as Excludes are concerned the option 
 you have given suits me well 

I realised it would help me as well. When I synchronise my local web
sites with my public server using delete old files, the ICS SVN files all
disappear since they are generated by scripts on the server, so I need to
exclude that directory.

[twsocket] MagFTP Upload Speed

2013-05-06 Thread Allan Fernandes
Hi,

1) In case I have to upload some data (eg: 5GB). How can I get to know
approximately how much time it will take ?

2) Just wanted to know if there are any size limits for upload with
ICS/MagFtp ?

Regards
Allan

Use CopyEvent, LogLevelProg gives you an ASCII string every couple of
seconds showing how much has been transferred and the total size.
Unfortunately from your perspective, the response is friendly format, ie
4.5Mbyte of 2.6Gbyte, which you'd need to parse with the time taken so
far to estimate the time left.  The internal variables are not available
in the event.  The component does report the time and speed at the end,
but that does not really help you. 

To do it properly really needs a new LogLevelSpeed type in the procedure
onFtpClientProg64 that does all these calculations and gives an ASCII
response.  I'll put it on the wish list, with exclude sub-directories.   
 
 2) Just wanted to know if there are any size limits for upload with

No real limits, I've tested file transfers of DVD size, but nothing
larger.  But MagFtp only uses a single socket at a time.  If you want
more efficient uploading of single large files you would be better
looking at OverbyteIcsMultipartFtpDownloader (no uploader) that splits a
large file into chunks and does multiple parallel transfers.

Thanks.
Also informing you that as far as Excludes are concerned the option you
have given suits me well because apart from subfolders I also need to
exclude files that have come into the folder after the FTP process has
started (snapshot effect). My FTP upload may go on for 2 to 3 days and the
application may stop and start several times.
Also my requirement is mainly for upload. Download is only in case of any
data loss on local machine.
