How do I set write permission for a user programatically?

["ftpserver-users@developer.gb.com" <ft...@developer.gb.com>]

Hi Guys


I'm trying to run the ftp server embedded - so far so good - thanks!

When I connect I cannot write a file to the server. I get permission denied. 

I noticed that in the users.properties file there is a property for write permission:

ftpserver.user.unittest.writepermission=false

If I set this to 'true' ( making sure I don't save the user in the code) I can write. Is there a way to do this programatically?

This is my java code to create the user (from your example):

		UserManager userManager = userManagerFactory.createUserManager();
		BaseUser user = new BaseUser();
		user.setName("unittest");
		user.setPassword("unittest");
		user.setHomeDirectory(userHome.getAbsolutePath());
		
//		userManager.save(user);


What I would guess is that there would be a method for me to set the write permission:

		user.setWritePermission(true);


but I can't see anything.

I see there are methods for setting 'AuthorizationRequests' but I can't find any examples of how to use it.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Allan

You should use the Authority and WritePermission classes:



 List<Authority> authorities = new ArrayList<Authority>();

 authorities.add(new WritePermission());

 user.setAuthorities(authorities);

I hope this helps,
