Multiple files download via background downloader.

Question

Hi Team ,

The application requirement is to download files from FTP server.
We concluded background downloader(BackgroundDownloader Class
) to handle downloads for longer periods and to avoid suspend and resume, network connect and disconnect modes.

This is a very common requirement, are there any samples to match the requirement ...
My application should download 300-400 image files via the FTP server.
How many concurrent download requests can the application make for faster downloads.

Regards,
Manikanta Raju.

Background downloader is ideal for uploading and downloading large files using HTTP(S). FTP is also supported, but only for downloads. For getting sample code, please check this Background transfer sample.

There is no limit for concurrent download requests. and the download speed base on the network bandwidth. The larger the bandwidth, the faster the speed.
