Sending a File by Dempsey on 07-10-2003 at 07:09 PM
How can i send a file from a VB Plugin?
RE: Sending a File by Whacko on 07-10-2003 at 07:11 PM
you cant, unless you implement the sending by yourself using winsock etc
RE: Sending a File by Dempsey on 07-10-2003 at 07:15 PM
How would you send a file to a remote computer using winsock? would it send it to the IP address or what? cos winsock is just an internet control thing isnt it?
RE: Sending a File by Whacko on 07-10-2003 at 07:18 PM
Yes is an API, and sends to ip. but you cant know which ip to send to, cos messenger sends its messages through the MSN server not directly to the other person's pc

But isn't there a way to find there IP address so you can send them a file? not automatically, as then you could send anyone anything, but you could ask if they want a file and if they accept their IP address is sent over msn to you and you use winsock to send them the file.

i don't know if you noticed yet but you can copy and past a file in msn6
so just hava a api making the file copy and past in your window

So you mean you can paste a file into the convo window and it starts a file transfer? Even if that does work, thats only on MSN 6 and i want to try and make my plugins work for everyone if possible, whatever their msn/windows messenger version is.

yeah ur right 
havent thought of that though dropping works in 4.7 too afaik

I guess that will be my last update before the release tonight.. here you go... /dropfile command added . Give the file in parameter. This will work in any Messenger version that Plus! supports.

Well Done Patchou !! so now we can use the command like /dropfile test.jpg and that would ask them to accept the file as normal?
