FTP

[freesoft_2000]

Hi everyone,

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

URL url = new URL("ftp://user01[email protected]/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

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/net/ has flexible FTPClient.

The "builtin" FTP protocol handler is just for retrieval. You need a
proper FTP library to actually do FTP client actions like upload and
the like.
