Hi List,

Before starting to send patches, I would like some feedback on some of the 
changes I have had to do inorder to correctly to receive files and 
directories from a MVS server.
A number of these changes could be added independently of the actual type of 
server being used.


the two functions

isFunctioningAsFile 
and
isFunctioningAsDirectory

is not taking into account that the file type can be unknown, so a check is 
added:


   private boolean isFunctioningAsDirectory(FTPClient ftp, String dir, FTPFile 
file) {
        boolean result = false;
        String currentWorkingDir = null;
        if (file.isDirectory()) {
            return true;
        } else if (file.isFile()) {
            return false;
        } else if (file.isUnknown()) {
                return false;
        }
 ...
}

    private boolean isFunctioningAsFile(FTPClient ftp, String dir, FTPFile 
file) {
        if (file.isDirectory()) {
            return false;
        } else if (file.isFile()) {
            return true;
        } else if (file.isUnknown()) {
                return false;
       }
        
        return !isFunctioningAsDirectory(ftp, dir, file);
    }



I am aware of different mailing lists have different ways of dealing with 
discussions, but I intend to send a number of similar mails, for other 
possible bugs in the FTP.java code, so please inform me if you would rather 
prefer this to be done differently.

Henrik
