Ftp

Expand Post »

Hi everyone,

Currently i am trying to connect to a site using ftp using the below method to upload a file

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
URL url = new URL("ftp://user01:pass1234@ftp.foo.com/README.txt;type=i");
URLConnection urlc = url.openConnection();
OutputStream os = urlc.getOutputStream(); // To upload
URL url = new URL("ftp://user01:pass1234@ftp.foo.com/README.txt;type=i");
URLConnection urlc = url.openConnection();
OutputStream os = urlc.getOutputStream(); // To upload

Now my question is how from java can i create or delete a directory as well as create or delete a file using ftp?

Is there also a way i can just connect to a ftp site say ftp.foo.com without specifying the file name so that i can connect to the ftp site first, create a file first then go to that file?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thank You

Yours Sincerely

Richard West

Re: Ftp

Once you have a connection you can talk over it using the command set provided for that protocol.
So you'll have to write FTP commands to that connection, and read the answers.

The RFC can tell you what those commands are (and there are quite a lot), or you can scour the internet for an FTP library (which I know exists, though I don't have the URL for it).
