Returns the FTP server response.
Syntax
Returns
A System.Net.WebResponse reference that contains an System.Net.FtpWebResponse instance. This object contains the FTP server's response to the request.
Remarks
To access the FTP-specific properties, you must cast the System.Net.WebResponse object returned by this method to System.Net.FtpWebResponse.
FtpWebRequest.GetResponse causes a control connection to be established, and might also create a data connection. FtpWebRequest.GetResponse blocks until the response is received. To prevent this, you can perform this operation asynchronously by calling the FtpWebRequest.BeginGetResponse(AsyncCallback, object) and FtpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(IAsyncResult) methods in place of FtpWebRequest.GetResponse.
If the FtpWebRequest.Proxy property is set, either directly or in a configuration file, communications with the FTP server are made through the proxy.
If a System.Net.WebException is thrown, use the WebException.Response and WebException.Status properties of the exception to determine the response from the server.
This member outputs trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see [<topic://conUsingNetworkTracing>].
Multiple calls to FtpWebRequest.GetResponse return the same response object; the request is not reissued.
