http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30737 UnixFTPEntryParser returns null when timestamp is between 12:00am and 12:59am ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-09-16 13:39 ------- An additional point here is backward compatibility. This API is by now several years old. Much code has been written based on the twin assumptions that: 1. The returned array may contain null members and these must be checked for before referencng and 2. Any non-null member is a complete FTPFile object. Changing these assumptions to 1. Every member of the returned array will be non-null but 2. Any member of the array may be incomplete, with member fields that may be null will break too much existing code to be seriously considered as an alternative now. If this was the design phase of a new API, your points would obviously need to be taken into consideration. Undoubtedly, better designs are possible. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
