At the outset i would like to tell everyone who uses and trusts lftp.... Its a very good tool and i have been using this from last 3 months.
i was looking for the following 1. a reliable ftpclient 2. a small footprint ftpclient 3. ftpclient that can download at a set rate 4. ftpclient that can start the work at given time 5. pause and resume the downloads and all these features are available with lftp i want to use lftp as a back-end that downloads files from a ftp server at a particular time with particular rate. The issue now is i want to integrate this into another piece of application or control it from that application. I tried using shared memory and diverted the readline to shared memory. Now i can give any command from there and lftp executed it. But i think i dont need to add this or i feel that this is not the best way. Can i use the .so files to call the functions and reach my requirement. I want to know how to compile and link the example files in the src directory. thanks vishwanath patil
