> The goal of the class is stated in javadoc:
> A wrapper to the FTPClient to allow automatic reconnect on connection loss.
> A lot of its methods look like :
>         try
>         {
>             do something...
>         }
>         catch (final IOException e)
>         {
>             disconnect();
>             try to repeat the operation...
>         }
> Unfortunately disonnect() can fail for the same reason as the original "do something". In my case it as a "connection reset". So instead of the original exception I was getting more or less the same exception from getFtpClient().quit();
> So the wrapper did not help at all.
> I guess all the disconnect() invocations must also be inside try/catch so that even if disconnect() throws, the method goes on to the next step:  try to repeat the operation...
