What code are you looking at? There might be something which is out of
date in our documentation.
b) when I change the code, I can start and stop the ftp, but I don't
know how to add users, and do other FTP parameter change.
A sample code or your suggestion will be very much appreciated.
The add (and remove and make other changes) to users, you need to get
the UserManager used with your server. Something like this should work:
FtpServer server = new FtpServer();
FtpServerContext context = server.getServerContext();
UserManager userManager = context.getUserManager();
BaseUser userToAdd = new BaseUser();
userToAdd.setName("rajeev");
userToAdd.setPassword("secret");
userManager.save(userToAdd);
In this case it's using the default UserManager which will store users
in a properties file. If you need additional examples, feel free to get
back here!
I'm not sure of what other FTP parameters you want to change, could you
please specify?

Re: FTP Server implementation
Thanks Niklas for the reply.
I found out that the src and compiled ftp on the web site for download
do not have the functionality as you stated in your code. So I
downloaded from svn and when I compile the code is throwing some lots of
class not found. I am not sure if this is because of my mistake or I am
not getting all the file. I was checking the code as it is throwing
error for files in import statement. And I don't see those files any
where in directory structure.
import org.apache.ftpserver.ftplet.Authority;
import org.apache.ftpserver.ftplet.Component;
import org.apache.ftpserver.ftplet.FileSystemManager;
import org.apache.ftpserver.ftplet.FtpStatistics;
import org.apache.ftpserver.ftplet.Ftplet;
May be you can point me in right direction. Before I was using a jar
file
file:///C:/Apache%20FTP/ftpserver-dev/ftpserver-dev/common/lib/ftpserver-dev.jar
from compiled code as library
which had all the classes. I want to do the same using new code.
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Rajeev

Re: FTP Server implementation
How can I download from SVN? Do I need any Client Softtware to do SVN Checkout ? If I clck on http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ftpserver/trunk/ it shows all directory/files, but I cannot figure out how to download all files in one time.

Yes, you need to use a Subversion client. If you are on Windows, I would recommaned TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/). This was clear in our documentation so I've added it. Thanks for noticing! /niklas

However, the Apache rules around releasing requires that we first vote on this list and then, after a successful vote asks the Incubator to vote. If that succeeds, we're allowed to release. There is currently a vote ongoing here for the first step. If that is approved, we'll move on to getting a release out. /niklas
