Hi,
Is there any way to transfer a file using TAPI?
I need to dial a number from an application and then transfer some files on
regular basis.
Is TAPI the thing I should look for?
Thanks,
Cosmin |

Cosmin,
what device / TSP are you using?
I presume a modem / UniModem.TSP?
You may want to take a look at the TAPICOMM sample from P-SDK:

Hi Andreas,
I had a look at the sample you're talking about. What they basically do is
they write to the COM port after the connection is established. I can do that
without using the COM port directly like below but I don't really want it.
Using comPort As SerialPort = My.Computer.Ports.OpenSerialPort("COM1", 2400)
comPort.DtrEnable = True
comPort.Write("ATDT 206-555-1000" & vbCrLf)
' All data transfer code goes here.
comPort.Write(theFile)
End Using
In the future we might change the modem with an ADSL connection and I don't
really want to change the code. Is there a more abstract(at TAPI level not
serial port level) way to transfer it?
Thanks,
Cosmin

Cosmin,
no, unfortunately there isn't a generic file transfer mechanism in TAPI
(*Telephony* API).

Cosmin,
then in your case it might be better to use RAS to do the connection
and use TCP to do the transfer.
RAS abstracts all the connection stuff and you can use modems, ISDN,
DSL or VPN to connect.
Additionally by using TCP you can also use existing internet or LAN
connections.
Best regards,
Matthias Moetje
