Sebb commented on NET-667:
--------------------------

Note that you should be able to use:

http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-net/javadocs/api-3.6/org/apache/commons/net/ftp/FTP.html#sendCommand(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String)

for any arbitrary command

>             Project: Commons Net
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: FTP
>    Affects Versions: 3.6
>            Reporter: Eugène Adell
>            Priority: Major
>
> The class org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTP which implements many FTP commands (cdup cwd  mkd ..) still doesn't support size command.
> Indeed there is no size() method for this class, and org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPCmd doesn't have the SIZE constant (as a consequence we also couldn't call sendCommand("SIZE path") as a workaround).
>  
> Please don't misunderstand with FTPFile.getSize() which returns the size found from a list result (this size being also wrong when dealing with symlinks, but that's another story)
