/**
 * FTP provides the basic the functionality necessary to implement your own FTP client. It extends org.apache.commons.net.SocketClient since extending
 * TelnetClient was causing unwanted behavior (like connections that did not time out properly).
 * <p>
 * To derive the full benefits of the FTP class requires some knowledge of the FTP protocol defined in RFC 959. However, there is no reason why you should have
 * to use the FTP class. The {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient} class, derived from FTP, implements all the functionality required of an FTP client.
 * The FTP class is made public to provide access to various FTP constants and to make it easier for adventurous programmers (or those with special needs) to
 * interact with the FTP protocol and implement their own clients. A set of methods with names corresponding to the FTP command names are provided to facilitate
 * this interaction.
 * <p>
 * You should keep in mind that the FTP server may choose to prematurely close a connection if the client has been idle for longer than a given time period
 * (usually 900 seconds). The FTP class will detect a premature FTP server connection closing when it receives a
 * {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPReply#SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE FTPReply.SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE } response to a command. When that occurs, the FTP class
 * method encountering that reply will throw an {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException} . <code>FTPConectionClosedException</code> is a
 * subclass of <code> IOException </code> and therefore need not be caught separately, but if you are going to catch it separately, its catch block must appear
 * before the more general <code> IOException </code> catch block. When you encounter an {@link org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPConnectionClosedException} , you
 * must disconnect the connection with {@link #disconnect disconnect() } to properly clean up the system resources used by FTP. Before disconnecting, you may
 * check the last reply code and text with {@link #getReplyCode getReplyCode }, {@link #getReplyString getReplyString }, and {@link #getReplyStrings
 * getReplyStrings}. You may avoid server disconnections while the client is idle by periodically sending NOOP commands to the server.
 * <p>
 * Rather than list it separately for each method, we mention here that every method communicating with the server and throwing an IOException can also throw a
 * {@link org.apache.commons.net.MalformedServerReplyException} , which is a subclass of IOException. A MalformedServerReplyException will be thrown when the
 * reply received from the server deviates enough from the protocol specification that it cannot be interpreted in a useful manner despite attempts to be as
 * lenient as possible.
