Using WinSCP .NET Assembly
First, you need to create an instance of WinSCP.SessionOptions
class and fill in all necessary information to allow an automatic connection and authentication of your session.
Then you create an instance of WinSCP.Session
class. Optionally you hook handlers of some events of the class. Then you open the session using Session.Open
method, passing instance of your WinSCP.SessionOptions
.
Once the session is opened, you can use any of the WinSCP.Session
methods to manipulate remote files. For example use Session.GetFiles
to download files, Session.PutFiles
to upload files or Session.SynchronizeDirectories
to synchronize directories.
