Question abaout the FtpURLConnection
What does the types -i -a -d stand for?, I have decompiled the ftpURLConnection to see how it works, and I found that all the work is done through the FtpClient class, that is ok for me, but since the ftpClient is controlled through the FtpURLConnection, then it seams that the "modes" of ftp are controlled through this.
Thanks for the attention.

Not sure what is meant, but in FtpURLConnection I found this"i": type = BIN;"a": type = ASCII;"d": type = DIR;BTW no need for decompiling, Java is open source (but big download [for

You are correct, in the src.zip you will only find the "public API" classes, but if you download the "Java SE 6 JDK Source Code" ( http://download.java.net/jdk6/) you get the source for (almost) all classes (missing crypto)[]

'i' 'a' and 'd' mean the same as they do to the 'type' command of ftp: binary ('image'), text ('ascii'), and 'directory'. You don't really need the sources or the Javadoc for that, you just need to know the ftp.exe commands.

It is still a century old topic and remains frozen.
