Mario Ivankovits commented on VFS-307: -------------------------------------- It seems there is no FTP spec which allows to escape/quote a path so that it works on each and every ftp server. So I landed at solution 2 similar to what the patch in VFS-123 proposed. It seems to work with my ftp server. > VFS issues a lot of FTP commands when listing a directory > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: VFS-307 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-307 > Project: Commons VFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Mario Ivankovits > Fix For: Nightly Builds > > > Hello Mario, > > We at JetBrains are implementing support for (S)FTP sync in our IDEs using > Commons VFS.
