Using FTP in ANT

Hi!

I want to use the FTP optional task to download a lot of files from the
server.  Since I have quite a few to download, I was wondering if it was
possible using ANT to put all the files I need in a jar file and then get
that jar file?

Thanks

Melanie.

To my knowledge, there's no simple way to create a jar file on a remote
machine. You'd need to jar the files on the server and then you can
easily use ant to download the jar.
