I need to copy a directory from the local disk to a server. The directory contains a lot of directories, subdirectories, and files. (Think of a hierarchy tree of directories).
Here is an example to copy one file:
public void saveFilesToServer() throws IOException {
FTPClient ftp = new FTPClient();
ftp.connect(ftp.foobar.com);
if (!FTPReply.isPositiveCompletion(ftp.getReplyCode())) {
ftp.disconnect();
log.fatal("FTP not disconnected");
}
ftp.login("foo", "qwerty");
log.info("Connected to server .");
log.info(ftp.getReplyString());
ftp.changeWorkingDirectory("test");
ftp.makeDirectory("somedir");
ftp.changeWorkingDirectory("somedir");
ftp.setFileType(FTPClient.BINARY_FILE_TYPE);
java.io.File srcFolder = new java.io.File(folderPath);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(srcFolder);
ftp.storeFile (fileName, fis);
ftp.disconnect();
log.info("FTP disconnected");
}
Now, I need to copy a directory (somedir
) with all the subdirectories and files of somedir
.
I think the algorithm should use recursion. Does someone know how?
