New PostXING coming soon
With the help of Laurent Kempé,
I've traced down a bug in the PostXING FTP library (or rather my handling of it)
and ended up changing the underlying FTP library code to the open source edtFTPnet
library. This is a more complete library than the sample socket code that I
was using before, and since it's LGPL licensed, I can link it into my code
without affecting the license that PostXING is released under (which is
zlib/libpng).
I also plan to add proxy support soon - the only hold up right now is that I
like to at least dry run what I'm releasing before I put it out there, and I
have no idea how to test if proxy code is going to work. Is there a such thing
as a free proxy server that I can test against? I'm pretty resolved to, er,
'borrowing' the functionality for proxy support from RssBandit simply because the code works and has
been a good reference for me before. So, I'm not worried about how to implement
it, just on how to test it. Any ideas?
