INT nLineMode |

); |
The SetLineMode method changes the current line mode for
the client session.
Parameters
- nLineMode
- An integer value which specifies how the newlines are sent by
the class. It must be one of the following values:
Value |
Description |
SSH_NEWLINE_DEFAULT |
There are no changes to how data is sent to the server. Any
carriage return or linefeed characters that are sent using the
Write method will be sent as-is. The WriteLine
method will terminate each line of text with a carriage return
and linefeed (CRLF) sequence. This is the default line mode that
is set when a new connection is established. |
SSH_NEWLINE_CR |
A carriage return is used as the end-of-line character. Any
data sent using the Write method that contains only
a linefeed (LF) character or a carriage return and linefeed
(CRLF) sequence to indicate the end-of-line will be replaced by
a carriage return (CR) character. The WriteLine
method will terminate each line of text with a single carriage
return character. |
SSH_NEWLINE_LF |
A linefeed is used as the end-of-line character. Any data
sent using the Write method that contains only a
carriage return (CR) character or a carriage return an linefeed
(CRLF) sequence to indicate the end-of-line will be replaced by
a linefeed (LF) character. The WriteLine method will
terminate each line of text with a single linefeed character. |
SSH_NEWLINE_CRLF |
A carriage return and linefeed (CRLF) character sequence is
used to indicate the end-of-line. Any data sent using the
Write method that contains only a carriage return (CR)
or linefeed (LF) will be replaced by a carriage return and
linefeed. The WriteLine method will terminate each
line of text with a carriage return and linefeed sequence. |
Return Value
If the method succeeds, the return value is the previous line
mode for the client session. If the method fails, the return value
is SSH_ERROR. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
When a connection is initially established with the server, it
determines what characters are used to indicate the end-of-line and
how they are displayed. On UNIX based systems, this is controlled by
the settings for the pseudo-terminal that is allocated for the client
session, and can be changed using the stty command. In most
cases, the client line mode can be left at the default. However, in
some cases you may need to change the line mode, particularly if you
intend to send data from a Windows text file or copied from the
clipboard.
Windows uses a carriage return and linefeed (CRLF)
sequence to indicate the end-of-line and a UNIX based server may
interpret that as multiple newlines. To prevent this, use the
SetLineMode method to change the current line mode to
SSH_NEWLINE_CR and the CRLF sequence in the text will be replaced
by a single carriage return.
