programmed file transfer between real time target and host

[LY12345]

Hi,

      I am trying to transfer files from the real time target back to the host. And I am trying to avoid loading each file into RT's memory and do the low level tcp/ip or streaming transfer. is there any better way to do it? I notice I can use the FTP client, but in this case, I would need to set up a FTP server and is there any utility functions that I can look into?  Another way I can think of is to use the email attachment, which is a bit of detour.

Thanks

The following KnowledgeBase article looks like it should be helpful. The related links also look promising for your applications.

Maggie, 

Thanks for the reply. 

 actually, I am looking for some way I can make the FTP transfer programmably rather than using the MAX FTP tool. 

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have found a couple other options, including a community example.
