Download from FTP to memory

[Jac de Lad]

Is there an inbuilt function to download from FTP to memory instead of a file (and vice versa)? If not, is there any special reason why not?

Write it to the FeatureRequest/Wishlist.

Unfortunately it is not done with curl, so it is not possible to use libcurl.pbi.

Thanks infratec.

I could use Windows API, but built-in is always better.

Hello Jac. Are the files accessible with the http protocol ?

Hello falsam,
yes they are. And I know about HttpRequest and such, but I also need to re-upload stuff. Working with memory buffers makes it a lot easier and I guess this shouldn't be too hard to implement since the file for upload and the data received from the FTP-server have to be transferred from memory anyway.
