NAME

6       Net::FTP::dataconn - FTP Client data connection class
7

SYNOPSIS

9           # Perform IO operations on an FTP client data connection object:
10
11           $num_bytes_read = $obj->read($buffer, $size);
12           $num_bytes_read = $obj->read($buffer, $size, $timeout);
13
14           $num_bytes_written = $obj->write($buffer, $size);
15           $num_bytes_written = $obj->write($buffer, $size, $timeout);
16
17           $num_bytes_read_so_far = $obj->bytes_read();
18
19           $obj->abort();
20
21           $closed_successfully = $obj->close();
22

DESCRIPTION

24       Some of the methods defined in "Net::FTP" return an object which will
25       be derived from this class. The dataconn class itself is derived from
26       the "IO::Socket::INET" class, so any normal IO operations can be
27       performed.  However the following methods are defined in the dataconn
28       class and IO should be performed using these.
29
30       "read($buffer, $size[, $timeout])"
31           Read $size bytes of data from the server and place it into $buffer,
32           also performing any <CRLF> translation necessary. $timeout is
33           optional, if not given, the timeout value from the command
34           connection will be used.
35
36           Returns the number of bytes read before any <CRLF> translation.
37
38       "write($buffer, $size[, $timeout])"
39           Write $size bytes of data from $buffer to the server, also
40           performing any <CRLF> translation necessary. $timeout is optional,
41           if not given, the timeout value from the command connection will be
42           used.
43
44           Returns the number of bytes written before any <CRLF> translation.
45
46       "bytes_read()"
47           Returns the number of bytes read so far.
48
49       "abort()"
50           Abort the current data transfer.
51
52       "close()"
53           Close the data connection and get a response from the FTP server.
54           Returns true if the connection was closed successfully and the
55           first digit of the response from the server was a '2'.
