[jira] Created: (VFS-182) Usage of FTP with heterogene FTP server
(possibility of using Ascii file type)
Usage of FTP with heterogene FTP server (possibility of using Ascii file type)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: VFS-182
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-182
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Environment: Mainframe BULL GCOS8
Reporter: Christian Bastin
Using VFS with ftpServer on Mainframe Bull. I need the posibility to set the file type to Ascii. The navigation in the directory and the filesystem work properly but the accessing of a data file is not possible.
I saw that the FtpClienFactory allways set the file type to binary, is it possible to give an external parameter, ..
FtpClienFactory :
....
// Set binary mode
if (!client.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE))
{
throw new FileSystemException("vfs.provider.ftp/set-binary.error", hostname);
}
...

PATCH!
I have the same difficulties as Bastin. EBCDIC and mainframe computers require ascii file type.
I propose this patch as a solution.
Binary file type is still default to maintain backward compatibility.
