Arno Unkrig commented on NET-171:
---------------------------------
Also, I'd strongly recommend that FTPFile declare an (abstract?) method
public String getModificationStamp()
, which returns a short string which is guaranteed to remain the same as long
as the file is unmodified and is very probable to change if the file is
modified. E.g. on a UNIX system, the modification stamp could be modification
time plus file size; on MVS, it could be modification date plus modification
level.
That would be a portable way to detect file changes on the FTP server.

> Hi there,
> the "MVSFTPEntryParser" who parses the output of an FTP LIST of an MVS FTP
> server, is a sad view... it's totally broken. I developed a custom
> FTPEntryParser, which I can hook into the FtpClient (thank you for the highly
> customizable design). I'd like to donate it to COMMONS NET... who can I turn
> to?
