Function Documentation

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_handle_init (globus_ftp_control_server_t *handle)
       Initialize a globus ftp server handle. This function will set up (i.e. intialize all
       mutexes and variables) a globus ftp server handle. It will also enter the handle in a list
       used by the module activation/deactivation functions.

       Parameters:
           handle The handle to initialize.

       Returns:

           • GLOBUS_SUCCESS

           • invalid handle

       References GLOBUS_FTP_CONTROL_MODULE.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_handle_destroy (globus_ftp_control_server_t *handle)
       Destroy a globus ftp server handle. This function will free up all dynamicly allocated
       memory associated with a given globus ftp server handle. It will also remove the handle
       from a list used by the module activation/deactivation functions. This function should
       only be called after a call to globus_ftp_control_server_stop.

       Parameters:
           handle The handle to destory.

       Returns:

           • success

           • invalid handle

           • handle is still in listening state

       References GLOBUS_FTP_CONTROL_MODULE.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_listen (globus_ftp_control_server_t *server_handle,
       unsigned short *port, globus_ftp_control_server_callback_tcallback, void *callback_arg)
       Start listening on a given port for FTP client connections. This function starts the
       listening on *port for connections from ftp clients. When a connection request is made
       callback is called and passed callback_arg. Upon return from this function the
       server_handle structure is initialized.

       Parameters:
           server_handle A pointer to a initialized server handle.
           port A pointer to the port to listen on. If the initial value is zero it will be set
           to the default value.
           callback The callback function called when connection requests are made.
           callback_arg The user argument passed to the callback function when connection
           requests are made.

       Note:
           I'm not providing any mechanism for making sure that this function is only called
           once. Is this needed?

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_command_init (globus_ftp_control_command_t *command, char
       *raw_command, globus_ftp_control_auth_info_t *auth_info)
       Initialize a command structure. This function initializes a command structure based on a
       null terminated string representing one line of input from the client. The command
       structure is used as a convience to determine what command the client issued. This
       function parses a command string sent by a client and populates the command argument
       appropriately. In the GSSAPI case it will also decode and unwrap the command before
       parsing it.

       Parameters:
           command A pointer to the command structure to be initialized
           raw_command A null terminated line of client input. Should contain one command.
           auth_info Authentication information needed for unwrapping a command

       References GLOBUS_FTP_CONTROL_MODULE.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_command_destroy (globus_ftp_control_command_t *command)
       Destroy a command structure. This function frees up the memory allocated to the command
       argument.

       Parameters:
           command The command structure whose associated memory is to be freed

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_command_copy (globus_ftp_control_command_t *dest,
       globus_ftp_control_command_t *src)
       Creates a copy of a command structure. This function should be called when the user needs
       to make a copy of a command structure.

       Parameters:
           dest The area of memory that the command structure is copied to.
           src The command structure to be copied.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_stop (globus_ftp_control_server_t *listener,
       globus_ftp_control_server_callback_tcallback, void *callback_arg)
       Stop the GSIFTP server from listening for client connections. This function stops
       listening on the given listener object for client connections. All existing client
       connections are left open.

       Parameters:
           listener the globus_ftp_control_server_t object that should no longer listen for
           connections.
           callback The user callback that will be called when the server structure is no longer
           listening.
           callback_arg The user argument that is passed into callback.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_accept (globus_ftp_control_server_t *listener,
       globus_ftp_control_handle_t *handle, globus_ftp_control_callback_tcallback, void
       *callback_arg)
       Accept a client connection request. This function is called to accept a connection request
       from a client.

       When the listen callback is called (see globus_ftp_control_server_listen) a client has
       requested a connection. This function must be called to accept that user connection
       request. Once the connection is established or if a error occurs, the callback function is
       called.

       Parameters:
           listener The server object that received the connection request.
           handle The control connection object. This structure will be populated and passed to
           the callback when the client is authorized. This structure represents the control
           connection between the server and client. It will be used to read commands from the
           client and send responses to the client.]
           callback The function called when the client connection has been accepted.
           callback_arg The user argument passed to the callback.

       Note:
           This functions assumes the the server and control handles have been initialized prior
           to calling this function.

       References GLOBUS_FTP_CONTROL_MODULE.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_server_authenticate (globus_ftp_control_handle_t *handle,
       globus_ftp_control_auth_requirements_tauth_requirements,
       globus_ftp_control_auth_callback_tcallback, void *callback_arg)
       Authenticate a client connection. This function is called to authenticate a connection
       from a client.

       After a client connection has been accepted (using the globus_ftp_control_server_accept
       call), this function should be called to authenticate the client. The caller of this
       function may specify certain authentication requirements using the auth_requirements
       parameter.

       Parameters:
           handle The control connection object. This structure will be populated and passed to
           the callback when the client is authorized. This structure represents the control
           connection between the server and client. It will be used to read commands from the
           client and send responses to the client.]
           auth_requirements This structure represents the authentication requirements that the
           user has for a given connection. For example GSIFTP user name, password, and account.
           callback The function called when the client authentication has been accepted or
           rejected.
           callback_arg The user argument passed to the callback.

       Note:
           It is up to the user of this function to send the reply to the last command of the
           authentication sequence.

           This functions assumes the the server and control handles have been initialized prior
           to calling this function.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_read_commands (globus_ftp_control_handle_t *handle,
       globus_ftp_control_command_callback_tcallback, void *callback_arg)
       Begin reading GSIFTP commands on a given control connection. This function begins reading
       control commands on a globus_ftp_control_handle_t. When a command is read the callback
       function is called.

       Parameters:
           handle The control connection handle that commands will be read from. Prior to calling
           this the function globus_ftp_control_handle_t must be populated via a call to
           globus_ftp_control_accept().
           callback The user callback that will be called when commands are read.
           callback_arg The user argument passed to the callback.

       References GLOBUS_FTP_CONTROL_MODULE.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_control_send_response (globus_ftp_control_handle_t *handle, const
       char *respspec, globus_ftp_control_callback_tcallback, void *callback_arg, ...)
       Send a response to the GSIFTP client. This function sends a GSIFTP formatted response to
       the client. When a command callback is received the user calls this function to respond to
       the clients request.

       Parameters:
           handle The control connection to send the response across.
           respspec A formated string representing the users response.
           callback The user callback that will be called when the response has been sent.
           callback_arg The user argument passed to the callback.
