[issue2054] add ftp-tls support to ftplib - RFC 4217
Giampaolo Rodola' billiej...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment:
You can build the docs by going to the Doc directory and typing make
html there. It isn't critical anyway.
Done. It's well formatted now.
The tests failed to run, I had to replace the KEYCERT declaration with:
KEYCERT = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), keycert.pem)
(and add import os at the top)
Done.
Another remark: login() doesn't return the response, while it does on
the normal FTP class.
Good catch, thanks.
Done.
Apart from that, I'm trying to test on a TLS-enabled FTP server, but
even the regular FTP class doesn't seem to work with it (I get 500
Illegal PORT command when calling retrlines('LIST')).
Strange. I doubt this issue is related with my changes.
I tried FTP_TLS agains proftpd, filezilla server and pyftpdlib and it
works fine.
New patch in attachment btw.

Possibly there might be another change we might want to do in future, which is adding support for CCC command, useful for reverting the control connection back to clear-text.

[issue7172] BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.responses[405] has a small mistake
New submission from Andrew Dalke da...@dalkescientific.com:
BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.responses contains a mapping from
HTTP status codes to the 2-ple (shortmessage, longmessage), based on RFC
2616.
The 2-ple for 405 is ('Method Not Allowed','Specified method is invalid
for this server.'),
RFC 405 says An origin server SHOULD return the status code 405 (Method
Not Allowed) if the method is known by the origin server but not allowed
for the requested resource.
I think the message should be Specified method is invalid for this
resource. That is, change server to resource.

[issue7119] email: msg.items() returns different values before and after msg.as_string()
R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment: The problem here is that when you are constructing a message the boundary is calculated as needed, and returning the list of items is not one of the times when the boundary is needed. I agree that it is not good design that as_string can mutate the object it is called on; however the alternative (throwing away the calculated boundary after message Generation) means that stringifying the same message twice would produce two strings that are not equal...which also seems like bad design. But perhaps that would be less bad design. The underlying problem here is that the things being returned by items are strings, when they should be Header objects.
