FTP_NB_PUT(3)								 1							     FTP_NB_PUT(3)

ftp_nb_put - Stores a file on the FTP server (non-blocking)

SYNOPSIS
int ftp_nb_put (resource $ftp_stream, string $remote_file, string $local_file, int $mode, [int $startpos]) DESCRIPTION
ftp_nb_put(3) stores a local file on the FTP server. The difference between this function and the ftp_put(3) is that this function uploads the file asynchronously, so your program can perform other operations while the file is being uploaded. PARAMETERS
o $ftp_stream - The link identifier of the FTP connection. o $remote_file - The remote file path. o $local_file - The local file path. o $mode - The transfer mode. Must be either FTP_ASCII or FTP_BINARY. o $startpos -The position in the remote file to start uploading to. RETURN VALUES
Returns FTP_FAILED or FTP_FINISHED or FTP_MOREDATA. EXAMPLES
Example #1 ftp_nb_put(3) example <?php // Initiate the Upload $ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local", FTP_BINARY); while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) { // Do whatever you want echo "."; // Continue uploading... $ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection); } if ($ret != FTP_FINISHED) { echo "There was an error uploading the file..."; exit(1); } ?> Example #2 Resuming an upload with ftp_nb_put(3) <?php // Initiate $ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local", FTP_BINARY, ftp_size("test.remote")); // OR: $ret = ftp_nb_put($my_connection, "test.remote", "test.local", // FTP_BINARY, FTP_AUTORESUME); while ($ret == FTP_MOREDATA) { // Do whatever you want echo "."; // Continue uploading... $ret = ftp_nb_continue($my_connection); } if ($ret != FTP_FINISHED) { echo "There was an error uploading the file..."; exit(1); } ?> SEE ALSO
