Hello,

I´m a new programmer in QNX, and I have to program a ftp client, but I
don´t know anything about this subject. Now I´m looking for information
about it, but my search hasn´t been very good. Could you help me?

Is there any library for this purpose?

Regards,

Jorge.

The specification for the FTP protocol is Internet RFC 959.

The QNX FTP client is probably just the BSD ftp
client, so you can get the source and build it yourself.

I have read some documentation and it is very interesting but I think it
is huge. Anyway, thank you very much, John.

But someone knows any library that I can use to develop a ftp program???

Thanks.

There ftplib (http://nbpfaus.net/~pfau/ftplib/) and libftp (http://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume29/libftp-5.0/)

I haven’t tried porting either but this sort of thing normally isn’t too much of a problem.
