Retrieves
the contents of a file from the FTP server. You can save the contents
as process data.
For information about the General and Route Evaluation property
groups, see
Common operation properties
.
Remote File Details properties
Properties for defining the file to retrieve.
File Name On FTP Server
A
string
value that represents
the name of the file to retrieve. The file name does not include
the path to the file. Specify the path using the Path On FTP Server
property.
Path On FTP Server
A
string
value that represents
the path to the file to retrieve. The path does not include the
file name. Specify the file name using the File Name On FTP Server property.
File Transfer Mode properties
Properties for specifying the format of transferred data.
File Transfer Mode
A
TransferModeEnum
value that represents
the format of the file data that is transferred. Valid values are
Binary
and
ASCII
.
You
should use binary transfer mode only if you are certain that the computer
that runs the LiveCycle server and the FTP server interpret ASCII characters
in the same way. For example, different types of computer systems interpret
the end-of-file character differently. Transferring text files from
one computer type to another can result in nonsensical characters
being inserted at the end of the file.
However, transferring
files in ASCII mode is marginally faster than transferring in binary
mode.
Connection Settings properties
Use the Connection Settings properties to specify information required
for connecting to the FTP server.
Use Configuration Options
A
boolean
value that specifies whether
to use the settings in the service configuration instead of the
settings specified in the properties of the operation. A value of
True
means
to use the default connection settings configured for the FTP service.
A value of
False
means to use the settings configured
in the properties for the operation.
If you use a literal
value to configure this property, selecting the Use Configuration
Options check box means to use the default connection properties
that are set for the FTP service. If you want to use the connection
settings specified in the operation, deselect the Use Configuration
Options check box
Host
A
string
value that represents
the IP address or URI. For example, you can use the name of the
computer that is resolved by Domain Naming Scheme (DNS).
Port Number
An
int
that represents the port number
for transferring files. The default port number is 21.
User
A
string
value that represents
the user name to connect to the FTP server. No default is provided.
Password
A
string
value that represents
the password to use for authenticating with the FTP server. No default
is provided.
