Hello,

I was wondering if I can do this using the Xceed FTP library?

Thank you,

Noel

Hi Noel,

Unfortunately, processing multiple files simultaneously is not supported. The only thing I can suggest are the SendMultipleFiles and ReceiveMultipleFiles methods, but they process the files one at a time.

Regular:

Hi Noel,

I received an update from the developer, there is a way to do this after all:
http://doc.xceedsoft.com/products/XceedFtp/#Running_multiple_operations_at_the_same_time.html

You can create multiple instances of the XceedFtp class and have each one download/upload a different file.

There is no magic here though. This is the way GUI Ftp applications do it. They just present it graphically as if it was the same session that transfers multiple files but, in fact, the FTP protocol only supports one file transfer per control connection.
