Does anyone have an working example stack you're willing to share where
'tsnetGetFile' or 'tsnetGetFileSync' is using HTTP (or HTTPS) to
download a file? I have had limited success using FTP but it
consistently fails (in my situation at least) when files are bigger than
200-300 MB (depending I guess on network traffic at that moment, or ???).
Today I started with the example described in the lesson:
http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/945907-how-to-download-multiple-files-in-the-background-with-tsnet
The example uses HTTP via 'tsnetGet' to download the text of web pages
into a variable, and then uses "put tData into url ("file:" <path>)" to
make the files. In my real-world situation I can't do that. My actual
downloads are binary files that can be over 1 GB. I need to download
them as files to the local disk, so for me 'tsnetGet' is out.
There are no tsnet examples on http://livecodeshare.runrev.com/ so I'm
turning to you (which I should have done earlier).
(Is there anywhere else I should look for examples? I did look on
stackexchange and stackoverflow but no joy.)
Thanks for any and all responses.
