I just noticed IFtpConfig.getFileSystemManager()...

Sorry to have wasted your time!

I've noticed I can create a custom Ftplet and retrieve the FileSystemManager from there, and pass it a reference within init() for example.

However since both FileSystemManager and my Ftplet is defined in the properties file and created by FtpServer, I'm still not sure if I can pass a reference from "outside" FtpServer into my FileSystemManager.

I'm beginning to think that what I'm trying to do is perhaps not within the most common uses for the FtpServer, and that I might have to enable a protocol between the FtpServer and the application.

Hello again,

I hope I am not abusing the mailing list by this further question;

I have now set up my own flavor of FileSystemManager and FileSystemView. The view keeps track of the current path of the user, and passes requests regarding FileObjects to an instance of (my own interface) FileObjectService.

to clarify, FileObjectService is a new interface containing just part of the FileSystemView interface:

public FileObject getRootDirectory() throws FtpException;

public FileObject getFileObject(String path) throws FtpException;

public FileObject[] listFiles(String path) throws FtpException;

public void dispose();


This is to separate the navigation with file handling, and limit the bridge to the rest of the application to implementing FileObjectService (and FileObject).

However, FileObjectService needs a reference to a service within the application. During this mock up, I have created the mock-application in the FileSystemManager, and passed it through FileSystemView to the FileObjectService.

Instead, I would like to pass a reference to the application-service into FileSystemManager upon creating the FTPServer. How would this be possible?


Best regards,

Joakim Back
