  //  Make the call that crashes or hangs,
  //  for example, if the method is DownloadFileByName:

  remoteFilePath := '...';
  localFilePath := '...';
  success := sftp.DownloadFileByName(remoteFilePath,localFilePath);

  //  Note: If the method returns control to your application code, then it did not crash within Chilkat.
  //  The DebugLogFilePath property causes all information that would be recorded in the LastErrorText to be emitted to the
  //  log file (with immediate file write flushing, i.e. no buffering).  Thus, in a crash situation,
  //  the log file will contain information up to the point of the crash.
