Newbie troubles with simple task

Question

Hey guys,

i have a project which requires the transmission of some files using FTP. This is really only a small part of the project so i dont have a great deal of time to spend on it. I only need to upload a file to an apache server. Then from another end download that same file. Hence i need two really simple clients.

I have downloaded and put edtftpj in my classpath and have access to just about everything.
What i dont know is what i need to implement this. I understand the basic of FTP, opening control connections, setting the server in passive/active mode then setting up the appropriate data connections.

Is there anything that would give me an example of this to use the edtftpj library? I have looked at other libraries, but it always the same case of lack of example tutorials.
Can anyone help?

Cheers

Dave

Look at the demo directory in the download.

That was just stupid of me! I had been up a very long time that day with too much caffeine in me.

Just wanted to say thank you very very much! I'm using eclipse IDE so it was a bit funny to figure out the demo.
Once i did.... WOW, what a lovely piece of work, it does exactly what i require and very intuitive to modify.

Thank you EDT! :D
