Did command line FTP with debug on. Didn't really get any debug info but when I turned on ASCII the file FTP'd as unreadable. So I decided to try sending it in Binary, and what do you know, it FTP'd as readable text. So I tried the same thing in by Java Edtftpj program and it FTP'd in readable fashion also. So I guess my problem is solved. But I find it interesting that sending a text file with a picture extension (.pct) in binary arrives at the mainframe server in text (readable) fashion.
btw, not sure if you saw the reply to my other post about being able to grab the Edtftpj info/debug output that goes to the console in a string so I can add it to an email.
You replied with:
Logger.addAppender(new StreamAppender(myStream));
I tried that without success. Here is the reply to your reply to my other post:
Thanks for your quick reply. Sorry for not fully grasping, am somewhat new to Java and ftp using "Edtftpj".
For testing and a better understanding have created 3 Appenders:
Logger.setLevel(Level.ALL);
Logger.addAppender(new FileAppender("c:\\output.log"));
Logger.addAppender(new StandardOutputAppender());
Logger.addAppender(new StreamAppender(Edtftpj.outStream));
I have set up the outStream and a get method:
public String getOutStream() {
return outStream.toString();
}
private static OutputStream outStream = new OutputStream() {
private StringBuilder string = new StringBuilder();
public void write(int b) throws IOException {
this.string.append((char) b );
}
public String toString(){
return this.string.toString();
}
};
But it returns nothing. What am I doing wrong?
This is what I am trying to grab in a string:
