FileTransfer

There are various specialized applications which can connect to various web pages in order to download items of interest, copy files, or even upload when necessary. Needless to say that these operations are handled by some lines of code. FileTransfer comes with this in mind, and wants to help make file transfer possible in new programs.

The package contains the necessary library components and classes to be implemented in Java applications. The documentation file explains the functionality and content of each file found in the package. There’s no installation involved, so files are ready to be used as soon as the package reaches the computer.

The core purpose of FileTransfer is to enable new Java applications to perform file transfer operations, such as download, upload, and copy. It can use HTTP read methods, with support for timeout, append, as well as read and connect timeout display values.

Although generally oriented towards integration into new Java programs, the set of functions can also be used from a command line interface. This is an appropriate method to test out the new functions about to be integrated in the project, and the command “java -jar download.jar http://x.com/anyfile.html C:\temp\anyfile.txt” can be used in this regard.
