I am writing an console application that is transfering some data via
FTP and I am using TIdFTP for this. The transfers are OK but I have a
problem in getting the user feedback working during transfers...
The TIdFTP object is created in code when the console application
starts:
FTP := TIdFTP.Create;
Then I set the events like this:
FTP.OnWorkBegin := FTPWorkBegin;
FTP.OnWork := FTPWork;
FTP.OnWorkEnd := FTPWorkEnd;
The procedures are defined like this:
procedure FTPWorkBegin(Sender: TObject; AWorkMode: TWorkMode; const
AWorkCountMax: Integer);
procedure FTPWork(Sender: TObject; AWorkMode: TWorkMode; const
AWorkCount: Integer);
procedure FTPWorkEnd(Sender: TObject; AWorkMode: TWorkMode);
The idea is to use these events to write a percent done message on the
standard output using the datya supplied by the event.
But the code won't compile, it stops and gives the error:
"[Error] Xmltv2Mei.dpr(790): Incompatible types: 'method pointer and
regular procedure'"
I *have* used this before in a GUI application so I am now baffled as
to why it won't work in a console app when everything else works just
fine.
Any ideas about what I can do to fix this???
(I cannot change the application around to a GUI app because of the
way it is going to be executed)
I am using Delphi 7 and the Indy 10 snapshot from about 1 month ago.
