Gary D. Gregory commented on VFS-283:
-------------------------------------
Thank you for your submission.
The odds of considering this patch for inclusion go up tremendously if you
include unit tests in your patch :)
The trunk code runs SFTP unit tests with an embedded server, so you should be
able to test this for the use case you have in mind. You will likely need to
augment the embedded server set up for the security you have in mind or
possibly set up an additional test class.
Look at {{org.apache.commons.vfs2.provider.sftp.test.SftpProviderTestCase}} as
a starting point. Don't forget the edge cases! :)
Thank you,
Gary
