I am trying to get FTPServer, and my FTPlets, to run in a Spring webapp. I've
read the Spring-setup documentation online, and taken the provided
ftpd-typical.xml Spring-config file and put it in with all of the other
Spring-config files for other beans. All of the code and FTPServer/FTPlet
libraries are already on the project classpath.
However, when I clean-rebuilt, and ran the project on GlassFish, the FTPServer
does not get constructed or start, and my FTPlets are not constructed or
loaded, either. When I try to connect with them again using my FTP client, the
client cannot connect--the login times out with no response from FTPServer. So
in Spring, the Server and FTPlet are not being instantiated or loaded.
When I tried ftpd-full.xml instead, same exact result. I added the necessary
<ftplet> node to it to register my ftplet.
Should I be using ftpd-typical.xml directly as the only Spring bean-config file
needed? Or must I also write a bean-wiring XML doc for it?
Also, what else do I have to do beside putting ftpd-typical.xml in there? I
mean--must I also write a Main class with a main() method which actually
constructs the FTPServer instance and Ftplet instance? If so, I don't see any
of the <bean> nodes in ftpd-typical.xml or ftpd-full.xml which Spring
normally needs to instantiate, inject, and wire together the beans. Do I have
to write a Main class to instantiate everything? How do I point to it in the
Spring config files?
