I am looking for a good FTP class library.  In particular, I need the library to do the following:

   1) Basic FTP transfers (get & put)
   2) File and directory creation / deletion.
   3) Handle multiple simultaneous transfers.
   4) Monitor progress of transfers.
   5) Resume aborted transfers.

One library I have found that seems to do all of these things is IP*Works from /n Software.  Does anyone have any experience with this package, good or bad?  I would greatly appreciate any feedback you have on it.  I would also like to hear any recommendations for other packages.

Thanks,

John McGrath  [TeamB]

My experience with IP*Works is limited to an older C++Builder version, but I
have found their software to be quite robust and reliable.  If they put the
same care into their Java version as they did their Windows version, you
shouldn't have any problems.

Thanks.

I did some testing with IP*Works and was pleased with what I saw.  
I was somewhat worried that it might not perform that well because 
it was pure-Java, but that does not seem to be the case.  It was 
just a tiny bit slower (a percent or two) than the native code
command line FTP program that comes with Windows.
