Hi Malaka, I researched for the Java NIO FTP library that you suggested for me [1]. What I found was that this is a code base with a very short history and the most recent commit was over 13 years ago by Torvald Riegel who was the only contributor to this [2]. I feel like this is not an ongoing project and not supported by the author. What do you think?
And I couldn't find any documentation regarding that library. Although I went through each and every Java class of this library, I couldn't find a way to get the use of this library without a API reference or documentation. I would be glad if you could share some additional materials if you have or any suggestions to get a better approach to this project.
