CFtpClient::GetBufferSize Method  
 
INT GetBufferSize();

The GetBufferSize method returns the size in bytes of an internal buffer that will be used during data transfers.

Parameters

None.

Return Value

If the method succeeds, the return value is the size of the internal buffer that will be used in data transfers. If the method fails, the return value is FTP_ERROR. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

The speed of data transfers, particularly on uploads, may be sensitive to network type and configuration, and the size of the internal buffer used for data transfers. The default size of this buffer will result in good performance for a wide range of network characteristics. A larger buffer will not necessarily result in better performance. For example, a value of 1460, which is the typical Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), may be optimal in many situations.
