transfer temp file name

Hi, I'm using filezilla server and client and would like to configure them to generate a temp file with a different name than the original file while the transfer is going. I've looked in the configuration preferences but can't find anything related to this.
I need this to enable this option because I have another process monitoring the destination folder and I don't what to trigger the process until the transfer is 100% completed.
thanks in advance for any help and for this great application.
cheers.

Temporary filenames are supported neither by the client nor the server.

Hi boco, thanks for the answer, could you tell me if that is something I should look in the server or in the client?
thanks again.

Usually temporary upload names is a server feature, e. g. PureFTPd has it. I'm not aware of any Windows FTP server supporting it, though.

Is there a plan to add this functionality ? It would be really useful in many cases.

No plan for this feature.
