Represents parameters of an FTP session between a client and a server.
For instance, a third party transfer will be represented
by two sessions: one between the client and the server A,
and the other between the client and the server B.
Public static variables are interpreted as follows:
matches(Session other)
Ensures that settings of 2 servers match each other so that
the servers are capable of performing a transfer between
themselves.
Can be SERVER_PASSIVE, SERVER_ACTIVE, or SERVER_DEFAULT.
The latter means that the mode has not been set explicitly, so
the server should act as default: passive on the standard port L-1.
This variable directly affects only the client.
After requesting data transfer, client
will wait on the control channel maxWait miliseconds,
polling for replies every waitDelay seconds.
If reply does not arrive after maxWait, client will
abort.
waitDelay
public int waitDelay
This variable directly affects only the client.
After requesting data transfer, client
will wait on the control channel maxWait miliseconds,
polling for replies every waitDelay seconds.
If reply does not arrive after maxWait, client will
abort.
Ensures that settings of 2 servers match each other so that
the servers are capable of performing a transfer between
themselves. The parameters of both sessions must either both be set
correctly, or both undefined.
Detailed rules:
Two sessions match if their transfer type, mode, and protection
buffer sizes match. Additionally, if one party is
passive, the other must be active.
If any of the variables are set to SERVER_DEFAULT, sessions are
considered matching.
