Bogdan Drozdowski updated NET-314:
----------------------------------
Attachment: ftp-autodetect-utf.diff
I believe the only non-ASCII encoding permitted is UTF-8
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2640), this is detected by sending the FEAT
command and looking for "UTF8" in the response. The attached file does exactly
this, right after the connection (original server greeting saved & restored
later). The autodetection is user-controlled.
> The FTP client should autodetect the control encoding.

> Key: NET-314
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-314
> Project: Commons Net
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: FTP
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Environment: Java client using FTP through VFS to connect to a Java
> (Alfresco's) FTP server
> Reporter: Tom
> Attachments: ftp-autodetect-utf.diff
>
>
> The Alfresco FTP server uses UTF8 for the control encoding. FTPClient can be
> set to use UTF8, but VFS does not expose that
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-305) and needs to be modified to
> fix this. But that is not the issue here; FileZilla is able to automatically
> detect that Alfresco's FTP server is using UTF8. So apparantly the server is
> somehow communicating this to the client. Being able to automatically set the
> encoding, would greately improve the out-of-the-box quality of the FTP
> component.
