I'm using the Commons Net FTPClient
class to periodically poll an ftp site and attempt to download a file. Occasionally the thread is blocking indefinitely when trying to read from the site and I wondered if anyone else had encountered this problem and could offer any workarounds?
I'm using FTPClient
's retrieveFileStream(String)
method to get a handle to an InputStream, which I then attempt to read from. Below is a partial stack trace of the blocked thread.
