Class FTPFile

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    public class FTPFile
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements java.io.Serializable
    The FTPFile class is used to represent information about files stored on an FTP server. Because there is no standard representation for file information on FTP servers, it may not always be possible to extract all the information that can be represented by FTPFile, or it may even be possible to extract more information. In cases where more information can be extracted, you will want to subclass FTPFile and implement your own FTPFileListParser to extract the information. However, most FTP servers return file information in a format that can be completely parsed by DefaultFTPFileListParser and stored in FTPFile.
