FTP: rename after upload

[Gert Vanthienen]

L.S.,

We have to upload large XML files to an FTP server, where they are 
picked up for further processing.  Before ServiceMix, we used to upload 
the file using a temporary name and rename the file afterwards, to 
ensure the next process would never start to download a partially 
uploaded XML file.

Does the <ftp:sender/> implement this kind of behavior or does it 
implement another way to ensure no partially uploaded file can be 
downloaded?  I didn't see it in the FTPSenderEndpoint  class, but it 
might be implemented by commons-net FTPClient.

If ServiceMix doesn't have this feature and if you think it would be a 
worthwhile addition, I would like to try and add it next week or so...


Regards,

Gert
