[REBOL] Re: FTP woes
From: rotenca:telvia:it at: 22-Oct-2003 17:08
I have not a real solution, but i think that there are one or more bugs in the
open function of the FTP handler.
The first suspect code is this:
repeat x length? connections [
conn: system/words/pick connections x
if all [conn conn/host = temp conn/user = port/user not error? catch
[get-cur-dir conn]]
it should be:
repeat x length? connections [
conn: system/words/pick connections x
if all [conn conn/host = temp conn/user = port/user not error? try
[get-cur-dir conn]]
the simple catch is not enough in this case.
But i think that this is not the only point of the FTP handler where this
happens and i am not sure if this point is the point which caused your error.
The other points are:
[not proxy not passive error? catch [listen-port: get-port port]]
and
either error? catch [net-utils/confirm port/locals/cmd-port active-check]
I think that all must be checked to see if the catch is enough and if try is a
valid substitute (it could mask some errors which should instead be reported
back to the user).
