Check Whether an SSH Exit Status Was Received

See more SSH Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Ssh.ChannelReceivedExitStatus method, which reports whether the server supplied an exit-status value for a channel. The only argument is the channel number. When it returns true, call GetChannelExitStatus to read the value.

-- Important: See this note about string length limitations for strings returned by sp_OAMethod calls.
