how to copy file to password protected wlan unc share

[pjsmith]

Hi,

Sorry, beginner here! Looked through the documentation but could not find the answer.

Can anyone point/give me an example of how to copy a file from a device to a standard password protected smb share, over the wlan?

I can see file copy documentation, but nothing about authentication, etc.

One option is to have a small application running on the server and connect to this application with the Network library. Your other option is to implement the SMB protocol.

Ah, thanks. That's what I was afraid off! 'Implement the SMB protocol'! I was hoping there was already a library for this.

Is there any way to use external libraries like this

jcifs.samba.org/src/docs/api/JCIFS API

? Seems others have already done all the work. Be a shame not to be able to use it.

You will need to wrap it by creating a library. See this thread for more information about libraries development: http://www.b4x.com/forum/additional...es/6810-creating-libraries-basic4android.html
