              org.apache.commons.net.ftp.parser.UnixFTPEntryParser

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, FTPFileEntryParser, FTPFileListParser

Direct Known Subclasses:

DefaultFTPFileListParser

public class UnixFTPEntryParser
extends ConfigurableFTPFileEntryParserImpl

Implementation FTPFileEntryParser and FTPFileListParser for standard Unix Systems. This class is based on the logic of Daniel Savarese's DefaultFTPListParser, but adapted to use regular expressions and to fit the new FTPFileEntryParser interface.

Constructor Summary

UnixFTPEntryParser()
The default constructor for a UnixFTPEntryParser object.

UnixFTPEntryParser(FTPClientConfig config)
This constructor allows the creation of a UnixFTPEntryParser object with something other than the default configuration.

Method Summary

protected FTPClientConfig	getDefaultConfiguration() Defines a default configuration to be used when this class is instantiated without a FTPClientConfig parameter being specified.
FTPFile	parseFTPEntry(String entry) Parses a line of a unix (standard) FTP server file listing and converts it into a usable format in the form of an FTPFile instance.

Field Detail

NUMERIC_DATE_CONFIG

public static final FTPClientConfig NUMERIC_DATE_CONFIG

Some Linux distributions are now shipping an FTP server which formats file listing dates in an all-numeric format: "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm. This is a very welcome development, and hopefully it will soon become the standard. However, since it is so new, for now, and possibly forever, we merely accomodate it, but do not make it the default.

For now end users may specify this format only via UnixFTPEntryParser(FTPClientConfig). Steve Cohen - 2005-04-17

Constructor Detail

UnixFTPEntryParser

public UnixFTPEntryParser()

The default constructor for a UnixFTPEntryParser object.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - Thrown if the regular expression is unparseable. Should not be seen under normal conditions. It it is seen, this is a sign that REGEX is not a valid regular expression.

UnixFTPEntryParser

public UnixFTPEntryParser(FTPClientConfig config)

This constructor allows the creation of a UnixFTPEntryParser object with something other than the default configuration.

Parameters:

config - The configuration object used to configure this parser.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - Thrown if the regular expression is unparseable. Should not be seen under normal conditions. It it is seen, this is a sign that REGEX is not a valid regular expression.

Since:

1.4

Method Detail

parseFTPEntry

public FTPFile parseFTPEntry(String entry)

Parses a line of a unix (standard) FTP server file listing and converts it into a usable format in the form of an FTPFile instance. If the file listing line doesn't describe a file, null is returned, otherwise a FTPFile instance representing the files in the directory is returned.

Parameters:

entry - A line of text from the file listing

Returns:

An FTPFile instance corresponding to the supplied entry

getDefaultConfiguration

protected FTPClientConfig getDefaultConfiguration()

Defines a default configuration to be used when this class is instantiated without a FTPClientConfig parameter being specified.

Specified by:

getDefaultConfiguration in class ConfigurableFTPFileEntryParserImpl

Returns:

the default configuration for this parser.
