Work on SSHD-882 stopped by Goldstein Lyor. ------------------------------------------- > Add support for STDERR stream usage in SFTP > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: SSHD-882 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-882 > Project: MINA SSHD > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.1.0 > Reporter: Goldstein Lyor > Assignee: Goldstein Lyor > Priority: Minor > > According to [version > 4|https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-04#section-3.1]: > {quote} > Packets are sent and received on stdout and stdin. Data sent on > stderr by the server SHOULD be considered debug or supplemental error > information, and MAY be displayed to the user. > For example, during initialization, there is no client request > active, so errors or warning information cannot be sent to the client > as part of the SFTP protocol at this early stage. However, the > errors or warnings MAY be sent as stderr text. > {quote} > We currently initialize the STDERR stream, but make no use of it. We should > provide a *configurable* way of using this stream - provided we find a > use-case for it and maybe some client/server(s) that make use of it. *Note:* > by default, the {{ChannelSession}} (that we use to consume SFTP data) does > not accept STDERR data: > {code:java} > @Override > protected void doWriteExtendedData(byte[] data, int off, long len) throws > IOException { > throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Server channel does not > support extended data"); > } > {code} > so we need to consider very carefully what such a feature would require. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
