\title FTP Example+ −
+ −
The FTP example demonstrates a simple FTP client that can be used+ −
to list the available files on an FTP server and download them.+ −
+ −
\image ftp-example.png+ −
+ −
The user of the example can enter the address or hostname of an+ −
FTP server in the \gui {Ftp Server} line edit, and then push the+ −
\gui Connect button to connect to it. A list of the server's+ −
top-level directory is then presented in the \gui {File List} tree+ −
view. If the selected item in the view is a file, the user can+ −
download it by pushing the \gui Download button. An item+ −
representing a directory can be double clicked with the mouse to+ −
show the contents of that directory in the view.+ −
+ −
The functionality required for the example is implemented in the+ −
QFtp class, which provides an easy, high-level interface to the+ −
file transfer protocol. FTP operations are requested through+ −
\l{QFtp::Command}s. The operations are asynchronous. QFtp will+ −
notify us through signals when commands are started and finished.+ −
+ −
We have one class, \c FtpWindow, which sets up the GUI and handles+ −
the FTP functionality. We will now go through its definition and+ −
implementation - focusing on the code concerning FTP. The code for+ −
managing the GUI is explained in other examples.+ −
+ −
\section1 FtpWindow Class Definition+ −
+ −
The \c FtpWindow class displays a window, in which the user can+ −
connect to and browse the contents of an FTP server. The slots of+ −
\c FtpWindow are connected to its widgets, and contain the+ −
functionality for managing the FTP connection. We also connect to+ −
signals in QFtp, which tells us when the+ −
\l{QFtp::Command}{commands} we request are finished, the progress+ −
of current commands, and information about files on the server.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.h 0+ −
+ −
We will look at each slot when we examine the \c FtpWindow+ −
implementation in the next section. We also make use of a few+ −
private variables:+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.h 1+ −
+ −
The \c isDirectory hash keeps a history of all entries explored on+ −
the FTP server, and registers whether an entry represents a+ −
directory or a file. We use the QFile object to download files+ −
from the FTP server. + −
+ −
\section1 FtpWindow Class Implementation+ −
+ −
We skip the \c FtpWindow constructor as it only contains code for+ −
setting up the GUI, which is explained in other examples.+ −
+ −
We move on to the slots, starting with \c connectOrDisconnect().+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 0+ −
+ −
If \c ftp is already pointing to a QFtp object, we QFtp::Close its+ −
FTP connection and delete the object it points to. Note that we do+ −
not delete the object using standard C++ \c delete as we need it+ −
to finish its abort operation.+ −
+ −
\dots+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 1+ −
+ −
If we get here, \c connectOrDisconnect() was called to establish a+ −
new FTP connection. We create a new QFtp for our new connection,+ −
and connect its signals to slots in \c FtpWindow. The+ −
\l{QFtp::}{listInfo()} signal is emitted whenever information+ −
about a single file on the sever has been resolved. This signal is+ −
sent when we ask QFtp to \l{QFtp::}{list()} the contents of a+ −
directory. Finally, the \l{QFtp::}{dataTransferProgress()} signal+ −
is emitted repeatedly during an FTP file transfer, giving us+ −
progress reports.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 2+ −
+ −
The \gui {Ftp Server} line edit contains the IP address or+ −
hostname of the server to which we want to connect. We first check+ −
that the URL is a valid FTP sever address. If it isn't, we still+ −
try to connect using the plain text in \c ftpServerLineEdit. In+ −
either case, we assume that port \c 21 is used.+ −
+ −
If the URL does not contain a user name and password, we use+ −
QFtp::login(), which will attempt to log into the FTP sever as an+ −
anonymous user. The QFtp object will now notify us when it has+ −
connected to the FTP server; it will also send a signal if it+ −
fails to connect or the username and password were rejected.+ −
+ −
We move on to the \c downloadFile() slot:+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 3+ −
\dots+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 4+ −
+ −
We first fetch the name of the file, which we find in the selected+ −
item of \c fileList. We then start the download by using+ −
QFtp::get(). QFtp will send progress signals during the download+ −
and a signal when the download is completed. + −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 5+ −
+ −
QFtp supports canceling the download of files.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 6+ −
+ −
The \c ftpCommandFinished() slot is called when QFtp has+ −
finished a QFtp::Command. If an error occurred during the+ −
command, QFtp will set \c error to one of the values in+ −
the QFtp::Error enum; otherwise, \c error is zero.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 7+ −
+ −
After login, the QFtp::list() function will list the top-level+ −
directory on the server. addToList() is connected to+ −
QFtp::listInfo(), and will be invoked for each entry in that+ −
directory.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 8+ −
+ −
When a \l{QFtp::}{Get} command is finished, a file has finished+ −
downloading (or an error occurred during the download).+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 9+ −
+ −
After a \l{QFtp::}{List} command is performed, we have to check if+ −
no entries were found (in which case our \c addToList() function+ −
would not have been called). + −
+ −
Let's continue with the \c addToList() slot:+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 10+ −
+ −
When a new file has been resolved during a QFtp::List command,+ −
this slot is invoked with a QUrlInfo describing the file. We+ −
create a separate row for the file in \c fileList. If \c fileList+ −
does not have a current item, we set the new item to be the+ −
current item.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 11+ −
+ −
The \c processItem() slot is called when an item is double clicked+ −
in the \gui {File List}. If the item represents a directory, we+ −
want to load the contents of that directory with QFtp::list().+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 12+ −
+ −
\c cdToParent() is invoked when the user requests to go to the+ −
parent directory of the one displayed in the file list. After+ −
changing the directory, we QFtp::List its contents.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 13+ −
+ −
The \c updateDataTransferProgress() slot is called regularly by+ −
QFtp::dataTransferProgress() when a file download is in progress.+ −
We use a QProgressDialog to show the download progression to the+ −
user.+ −
+ −
\snippet examples/network/qftp/ftpwindow.cpp 14+ −
+ −
The \c enableDownloadButton() is called whenever the current item+ −
in \c fileList changes. If the item represents a file, the \gui+ −
{Enable Download} Button should be enabled; otherwise, it is+ −
disabled.+ −
