Folks, I have a need for an ftp server where users send in files. Original intention was to run a quartz scheduled job to sweep customer's upload directory and process (convert, persist etc..,) it using my servlet.
Ever since I saw Apache FTPServer, I am thinking about a different pattern. As the customer completes uploads, an ftplet can get the file uploaded and send it to the servlet for processing. This way there is no need for a scheduler component in the architecture. Is this feasible? Also, can I get access to the file uploaded in the ftplet code (override for onUploadEnd) Thanks Praseed
