Java client side GridFTP implementation

jftp -- Java GridFTP client library

Jftp is a Java client side implementation of the FTP and GridFTP protocols. Jftp contains the package org.globus.ftp. It will be part of future Java CoG Kit and Globus Toolkit version 3 releases. It supports extended block mode, parallel connections, striped connections, restart markers, performance markers, and data channel authentication. Both client-server and third party transfer is supported.

Download

Please go to the Java CoG Kit download page. The current distribution can be found at

Source distribution: jftp-latest-src.tgz
Binary distribution: jftp-latest-bin.tgz

The development version can be accessed through our anonymous CVS server. Details will be included on this web page shortly.

Documentation

Java GridFTP client - programmer guide
Javadoc API documentation
UML diagrams (you need an SVG viewer, for instance Apache's Batik/Squiggle):

To locally generate javadoc API, in the root directory of source distribution run "ant javadocs". This will create build/javadocs subdirectory. However, the online API documentation may be more up-to-date.
