FtpClient.BeginConnect Method (String, String, String, Object)

Initiates an asynchronous connect using the default command port 21 and that has a specified state object.

[Visual Basic]
Overloads Public Function BeginConnect( _
   ByVal serverAddress As String, _
   ByVal userName As String, _
   ByVal password As String, _
   ByVal stateObject As Object _
) As IAsyncResult

[C#]
public IAsyncResult BeginConnect(
   string serverAddress,
   string userName,
   string password,
   object stateObject
);

Parameters

serverAddress: The server address (eg. 207.46.133.140 or ftp.microsoft.com).
userName: The user name. "anonymous" for an anonymous user.
password: The password. Normally your email address for an anonymous user.
stateObject: A state object, specified by the application, that contains information associated with the asynchronous operation.

Return Value

The IAsyncResult that identifies the posted asynchronous request.

Remarks

In asynchronous processing, you use BeginConnect to raise the ConnectCompleted event when the connect has completed. You complete the operation by calling EndConnect.

Use this overload to associate information with the operation that will be preserved throughout the operation's lifetime. The event handler can detect this information by looking at the AsyncState of the IAsyncResult that is associated with the operation.
