#17324 — com.sun.ftp?

From: Knute Johnson <nospam@knutejohnson.com>

Anybody know what the plans are for com.sun.ftp?  I've got a project that would 
work out really well if I could use the FtpClient class from that package.  Is 
it in the Mac version of Java 7?

Thanks,

Except it isn't com.sun.ftp, it's sun.net.ftp.  It's been one of those days 
already.

Why not use the Apache Common Net library?

Instead of relying on some undocumented can change anytime stuff.

I think I was assuming that it is a coming feature.  Why would they go to the 
effort to create an ftp package and include it in the JDK if it wasn't going to 
be a regular package some day.

One reason would be that it is not used explicitly but rather implicitly, for 
example via
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/net/URL.html#openStream%28%29

Also from that page: "Protocol handlers for the following protocols are 
guaranteed to exist on the search path :-

          http, https, ftp, file, and jar"

In other words: it is a regular package but it is not intended to be used 
directly but only via a different publicly accessible package.

Kind regards

        robert

There are some other packages you could use. See
