FTP (Apache Ant API)

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable
```
public class FTP
extends Task
```
Basic FTP client. Performs the following actions:
- send - send files to a remote server. This is the default action.
- get - retrieve files from a remote server.
- del - delete files from a remote server.
- list - create a file listing.
- chmod - change unix file permissions.
- rmdir - remove directories, if empty, from a remote server.
Note: Some FTP servers - notably the Solaris server - seem to hold data ports open after a "retr" operation, allowing them to timeout instead of shutting them down cleanly. This happens in active or passive mode, and the ports will remain open even after ending the FTP session. FTP "send" operations seem to close ports immediately. This behavior may cause problems on some systems when downloading large sets of files.
Since:

Ant 1.3

    Creates all parent directories specified in a complete relative pathname. Attempts to create existing directories will not cause errors.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - the FTP client instance to use to execute FTP actions on the remote server.
    
    filename - the name of the file whose parents should be created.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - under non documented circumstances
    
    BuildException - if it is impossible to cd to a remote directory
  - isUpToDate

                      throws java.io.IOException,
                             BuildException
```
    Checks to see if the remote file is current as compared with the local file. Returns true if the target file is up to date.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftpclient
    
    localFile - local file
    
    remoteFile - remote file
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the target file is up to date
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - if the date of the remote files cannot be found and the action is GET_FILES
  - doSiteCommand
```
protected void doSiteCommand(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                             java.lang.String theCMD)
                      throws java.io.IOException,
                             BuildException
```
    Sends a site command to the ftp server
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftp client
    
    theCMD - command to execute
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - in unknown circumstances
  - sendFile
```
protected void sendFile(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                        java.lang.String dir,
                        java.lang.String filename)
                 throws java.io.IOException,
                        BuildException
```
    Sends a single file to the remote host. filename may contain a relative path specification. When this is the case, sendFile will attempt to create any necessary parent directories before sending the file. The file will then be sent using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftp client
    
    dir - base directory of the file to be sent (local)
    
    filename - relative path of the file to be send locally relative to dir remotely relative to the remotedir attribute
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - in unknown circumstances
  - delFile
```
protected void delFile(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,

                throws java.io.IOException,
                       BuildException
```
    Delete a file from the remote host.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftp client
    
    filename - file to delete
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - if skipFailedTransfers is set to false and the deletion could not be done
  - rmDir
```
protected void rmDir(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                     java.lang.String dirname)
              throws java.io.IOException,
                     BuildException
```
    Delete a directory, if empty, from the remote host.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftp client
    
    dirname - directory to delete
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - if skipFailedTransfers is set to false and the deletion could not be done
  - getFile
```
protected void getFile(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                       java.lang.String dir,
                       java.lang.String filename)
                throws java.io.IOException,
                       BuildException
```
    Retrieve a single file from the remote host. filename may contain a relative path specification.
    The file will then be retrieved using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - the ftp client
    
    dir - local base directory to which the file should go back
    
    filename - relative path of the file based upon the ftp remote directory and/or the local base directory (dir)
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - if skipFailedTransfers is false and the file cannot be retrieved.
  - listFile
```
protected void listFile(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                        java.io.BufferedWriter bw,
                        java.lang.String filename)
                 throws java.io.IOException,
                        BuildException
```
    List information about a single file from the remote host. filename may contain a relative path specification.
    The file listing will then be retrieved using the entire relative path spec - no attempt is made to change directories. It is anticipated that this may eventually cause problems with some FTP servers, but it simplifies the coding.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - ftp client
    
    bw - buffered writer
    
    filename - the directory one wants to list
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - in unknown circumstances
  - makeRemoteDir
```
protected void makeRemoteDir(org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient ftp,
                             java.lang.String dir)
                      throws java.io.IOException,
                             BuildException
```
    Create the specified directory on the remote host.
    
    Parameters:
    
    ftp - The FTP client connection
    
    dir - The directory to create (format must be correct for host type)
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - in unknown circumstances
    
    BuildException - if ignoreNoncriticalErrors has not been set to true and a directory could not be created, for instance because it was already existing. Precisely, the codes 521, 550 and 553 will trigger a BuildException
  - execute
```
public void execute()
             throws BuildException
```
    Runs the task.
    
    Overrides:
    
    execute in class Task
    
    Throws:
    
    BuildException - if the task fails or is not configured correctly.
  - log
