# FTPConnection.InvokeFTPCommand Method

Invokes the given literal FTP command on the server.

public virtual FTPReply InvokeFTPCommand(
string command,
params string[] validCodes
);

#### Parameters

command
  Command to be sent.
validCodes
  Valid return-codes (used for validating reply).

#### Return Value

The reply returned by the server.

#### Remarks

If a particular FTP command is not supported by FTPConnection, this method may sometimes be used to invoke the command. This will only work for simple commands that don't require special processing.

An example of an FTP command that could be invoked using this method is the `FEAT` command (which is actually behind the GetFeatures method. This would be done as follows:

        string features = ftpConnection.InvokeFTPCommand("FEAT", "211");

The returned `string` could then be parsed to obtain the supported features of the server.
