    WRQTransferLink Property
    In This Topic
    Returns or specifies the extent to which nonprinting ASCII characters are automatically converted to printing ASCII characters during file transfers.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
 

    Property WRQTransferLink As TransferLinkOption
    'Usage
 

    Dim instance As IFileTransfer
Dim value As TransferLinkOption
 
instance.WRQTransferLink = value
 
value = instance.WRQTransferLink
    TransferLinkOption WRQTransferLink {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The default value is TransferLinkOption.EightBitLink. TransferLinkOption.EightBitLink Only a small number of nonprinting ASCII characters are converted. Setting WRQTransferLink to EightBitLink automatically sets WRQStartCharacter to the start-of-text character, represented as Chr$(2), and sets WRQEndCharacter to the end-of-text character, represented as Chr$(3). It also specifies that characters specified with WRQExtraCharacters should be ignored. TransferLinkOption.SevenBitLink All nonprinting ASCII characters are converted. Using this value may cause a noticeable slowdown in the speed of the transfer. Setting WRQTransferLink to SevenBitLink automatically sets WRQStartCharacter to "(" and WRQEndCharacter to ")". It also specifies that characters specified with WRQExtraCharacters should be ignored. TransferLinkOption.UserDefinedLink All characters that would be converted under EightBitLink are converted, along with additional characters as specified with the WRQExtraCharacters property.
    Remarks
    If WRQFastFileTransfer is True, fast file transfers are attempted. If a fast file transfer takes place, the WRQTransferLink property is ignored. This property is relevant only for transfers that use the WRQ/Reflection protocol. The default value is TransferLinkOption.EightBitLink. TransferLinkOption.EightBitLink Only a small number of nonprinting ASCII characters are converted. Setting WRQTransferLink to EightBitLink automatically sets WRQStartCharacter to the start-of-text character, represented as Chr$(2), and sets WRQEndCharacter to the end-of-text character, represented as Chr$(3). It also specifies that characters specified with WRQExtraCharacters should be ignored. TransferLinkOption.SevenBitLink All nonprinting ASCII characters are converted. Using this value may cause a noticeable slowdown in the speed of the transfer. Setting WRQTransferLink to SevenBitLink automatically sets WRQStartCharacter to "(" and WRQEndCharacter to ")". It also specifies that characters specified with WRQExtraCharacters should be ignored. TransferLinkOption.UserDefinedLink All characters that would be converted under EightBitLink are converted, along with additional characters as specified with the WRQExtraCharacters property.
