Hi Malaka, Thank you for the response. When searching for Java FTP/SFTP libraries I found out that there are only a very few libraries built on top of NIO. But each of them had few limitations. So, I could not find any other fully-supported and suitable library built on top of NIO. When

Hi Chanaka, Yes if this does not support upto the level we need it'll be an issue. Did you find any other libraries that are build on top of NIO. If not we can compare the limitations with common-vfs (will be using commons-net internally for ftp/sftp) on functionality. eg: Unable to modify

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

Hi Malaka, I researched for the libraries that we can use for FTP/SFTP operations in addition to using Apache Commons VFS. I found out about some widely used libraries such as SSHJ [1] and JSch [2] and did a comparison among them. With the use of those findings I created a comparison on SSHJ,

Hi Malaka, Thank you for your response. As you mentioned, you have done a similar development to optimize and manage local file system using Java NIO [1] instead of Commons-vfs. [2] So my goal is to find such mechanism which is more unique to ftp/sftp protocol, in order to support file

Hi Chanaka, Thank you for sending the mail. Currently we have file inbound endpoint [1] and file connector [2] to support file operations in WSO2 ESB. However this is written on top of common-vfs. Common vfs support variety of file systems or protocols. eg: ftp, samba etc. Due to that this is
