International characters [FTPClient / VFS]

2010-03-25 Thread Tom



When I access a FTP server via VFS, indirectly using FTPClient, and 
there are directories with characters like ö, ë, ü, I get illegal 
characters. An encoding issue it seems. I traced it back to the 
FTPClient class which already returns incorrectly file names.


The question naturally is: how to I tell the FTPClient to use a 
different encoding? The FTP server is Alfresco, so it it written in 
Java. I assume I need to use UTF8.

Since I have a patch version of VFS (because of another Alfresco FTP 
problem) anyhow, I hacked a


   client.setControlEncoding(UTF8); // Alfresco uses UTF8

into the FtpClientFactory. But there should be a better way.

I notice that FileZilla automatically switches to UTF8, so I assume the 
FTP server informs the client what it is using? And that common-net FTP 
should be modified?
