Writes data to an open Internet file.

Syntax

  __in   HINTERNET hFile,
  __in   LPCVOID lpBuffer,
  __in   DWORD dwNumberOfBytesToWrite,
  __out  LPDWORD lpdwNumberOfBytesWritten
);

Parameters

hFile [in]

Handle returned from a previous call to FtpOpenFile or an HINTERNET handle sent by HttpSendRequestEx.

lpBuffer [in]

dwNumberOfBytesToWrite [in]
