WORK IN PROGRESS
Here we have a collection of frequently asked questions about JADE and its predecessor SOSFTP.
Any comments, questions and/or confusing points? Please get in contact with the developers! We need all the information we can get to make the use of JADE and everything related to it (including this documentation) a breeze.
Note that you may also find the following useful:
Features
- Developed with and Support for JDK 1.6 and above
- Fully compliant with RFC 959, RFC 1579 and RFC 2228
- Secure file transfers via encrypted network sessions
- Support for both implicit SSL and explicit SSL connections (FTPS)
- ZLIB data compression for improved file transfer performance (SFTP)
- Easy Automating file transfer processes using JobScheduler integrated Template Jobs
- Support for openSSH public key and client certificate authentication
- ASCII and binary file transfer modes
- Transfer multiple files using regular expressions
- Transfer entire directories recursively including sub directories
- Network timeout capabilities detect lost connections and inaccessible servers
- Interrupt file transfers using non-blocking methods
- Debug capabilities to log all messages exchanged between source and target (-server)
- Upload and download files from/to memory.
- Checksum verification to detect corrupt or incomplete file transfers
- Redistribute the included components as part of your application without additional fees
