Syntax

C#
public void ParseUrl(string url)
VB.NET
Public Sub ParseUrl(url As String)

Parameters

Name Description
string url Session URL to parse.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
ArgumentException The URL given does not have correct format.

Remarks

Parses the given session URL and stores the results into Protocol, HostName, UserName, Password (SecurePassword), PortNumber, SshHostKeyFingerprint, FtpSecure, Secure and RootPath properties.

Resets properties not specified in the URL to their default values. Always resets GiveUpSecurityAndAcceptAnySshHostKey, TlsHostCertificateFingerprint, and GiveUpSecurityAndAcceptAnyTlsHostCertificate to their default values.

The URL can also include advanced settings.

Note that the method parser is more strict, than a parser used for URLs with scripting command open or command-line.

You can use the method to accept session URL provided by a custom command patterns !E (preferred) or !S. This allows an easy implementation of WinSCP extensions using e.g. PowerShell scripts that make use of WinSCP .NET assembly.
