This is a FTP client library.
This is a FTP client C/C++ source code library. This is a software library written in C which implements the client side of the File Transfer Protocol over TCP socket layer according to RFC 959. The library could be called from any C/C++ application. First necessary feature, of course, is the ability to connect to remote servers. That is possible and the process supports password authentication. Once connected, the client would be able to traverse the server directory structure. Not only can you get a listing of the files, but you can rename and delete files in directories in which you are allowed access. Folders also can be renamed and removed as required by the client. Passive mode data connections are possible. Recursive download, upload and deletion of folders and all the sub-folders and files inside are possible.
There can be simultaneous FTP sessions on at a time. A maximum of 32 such sessions are possible. Timeouts can be programmed by the user. The interface is quite intuitive and just about anybody should be able to get productive with it in short time. As is common with this kind of clients, the interface has two windows showing files in the local machine and the remote server. There are clearly marked buttons that indicate various functions. A drag & drop of a file from one window to another will initiate a transfer. This is a good product. It has many useful features. If you were looking for a product like this, this is one you could try out.
