36 /***
37  * FTP provides the basic the functionality necessary to implement your
38  * own FTP client. It extends org.apache.commons.net.TelnetClient
39  * simply because it saves the writing of extra code to handle the FTP
40  * control connection which always remains open during an FTP session and
41  * uses the Telnet protocol. Aggregation would require writing new
42  * wrapper methods and wouldn't leverage the functionality already
43  * present in org.apache.commons.net.SocketClient.
44  * <p>
45  * To derive the full benefits of the FTP class requires some knowledge
46  * of the FTP protocol defined in RFC 959. However, there is no reason
47  * why you should have to use the FTP class. The
48  * {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient} class,
49  * derived from FTP,
50  * implements all the functionality required of an FTP client. The
51  * FTP class is made public to provide access to various FTP constants
52  * and to make it easier for adventurous programmers (or those with
53  * special needs) to interact with the FTP protocol and implement their
54  * own clients. A set of methods with names corresponding to the FTP
55  * command names are provided to facilitate this interaction.
56  * <p>
57  * You should keep in mind that the FTP server may choose to prematurely
58  * close a connection if the client has been idle for longer than a
59  * given time period (usually 900 seconds). The FTP class will detect a
60  * premature FTP server connection closing when it receives a
61  * {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPReply#SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE FTPReply.SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE }
62  * response to a command.
63  * When that occurs, the FTP class method encountering that reply will throw
64  * an {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException}
65  * . <code>FTPConectionClosedException</code>
66  * is a subclass of <code> IOException </code> and therefore need not be
67  * caught separately, but if you are going to catch it separately, its
68  * catch block must appear before the more general <code> IOException </code>
69  * catch block. When you encounter an
70  * {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException}
71  * , you must disconnect the connection with
72  * {@link #disconnect disconnect() } to properly clean up the
73  * system resources used by FTP. Before disconnecting, you may check the
74  * last reply code and text with
75  * {@link #getReplyCode getReplyCode },
76  * {@link #getReplyString getReplyString },
77  * and {@link #getReplyStrings getReplyStrings}.
78  * You may avoid server disconnections while the client is idle by
79  * periodicaly sending NOOP commands to the server.
80  * <p>
81  * Rather than list it separately for each method, we mention here that
82  * every method communicating with the server and throwing an IOException
83  * can also throw a
84  * {@link org.apache.commons.net.MalformedServerReplyException}
85  * , which is a subclass
86  * of IOException. A MalformedServerReplyException will be thrown when
87  * the reply received from the server deviates enough from the protocol
88  * specification that it cannot be interpreted in a useful manner despite
89  * attempts to be as lenient as possible.
