YAFTP BUG LIST
Low or Medium priority identified bugs and known problems :
- # BUG 1# : SWING event exceptions
occured when traces are activated and a GET operation is requested on
directory.(this looks like a SWING thread unsafe operation inside the
tracebox.#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # MVS FTP time out problem # :
YaFtp captures FTP time out and pop up a
dialog box asking the user if he wants to reconnect the timed out FTP session.
MVS FTP timeout session is not working well (get a read/write socket error
since the IBM FTP server silently closes the FTP command socket, instead of a
timeout FTP message on linux) , this way of timing out is not the same as UNIX
FTP session and the client socket gets blocked on some FTP commands when the
MVS FTP session has timed out .(almost identified on OS390 V2R7 box). I still
need to look more in details what happen on ftp 'TYPE I' + 'CWD '
commands.
- # BUG7# : Create Directory should not
popup when JES MVS mode is toggled .#FIX : not fixed
yet#
- # BUG16# : From a TSO FTP selected PDS
the transfert binary and ascii should proceed as a standard directory file
transfert , in order to be able to download an entire PDS inside a local
directory on a single click.#FIX : not fixed yet#.
- # BUG18# : provide a way to send a site
command manually + if the host is MVS provide a way to set a RECORD file
transfert; this is important since some file transfert should use RECORD Ftp
mode (XMIT files for instance) .#FIX : not fixed yet#.
- # BUG22# : I have been reported that on
some NT boxes using 1.2.2 JDK the java -jar yaftp.jar produces an error about
the main entry inside the manifest file .#FIX : not fixed yet and not reproducedt#.
- # BUG23# : Some dialog box are badly
positionned on the screen (Record mode fialog) .#FIX : not fixed yet
#.
- # BUG28# : double clicking on a JES job
pops a shows -1 file size progress bar => this part of the progress bar
should be hidden .#FIX : not
fixed yet #.
- # BUG29# : Using the "double quote" as
an 'absolute directory' positionning directory request for PDS should be
pondered ie : MYSUB.MYFILE will be considered as a relative positionning
starting at current namespace , "MYABS.MYFILE" should be considered as a
absolute directory positionning request.#FIX : not fixed yet #.
- # BUG31# : Some SWING components in
YaFtp Frame have obvious overestimated preferred sizes.#FIX : not fixed yet
#.
High priority identified bugs :
- # BUG 3# : When GETing TSO user's MVS
file list , dataset owner prefix IS LOST , leading to a file not found. This
only occurs if the dataset organisation is PS , partitionned dataset do behave
correctly when remote session is of type MVS ..#FIX : not
fixed yet#
- # BUG 6# : if a CD is done in JES mode,
a 550 No Dataset found is issued when switching between JES and MVS.#FIX
: not fixed yet#
- # BUG 15# : after a TSO fbinary file
transfert the JES2 selection does not list its file when clicking on the JES2
icon : and empty directory is listed even if JES output queue is not
empty.#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 19# : the local file name should
not be truncated when transfering from local to MVS except if the current
position is a PDS file.#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 22# : when license is invalid the popup dialog box
does not exit the java vm in a proper way.(System.exit() should be
activated)#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 24# : FTP traces are either not effective or not
verbose enough when submitting MVS jobs + Capturing JES Job number and
returning it into the popup window should be a good enhancement
#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 25# : implement REName function. #FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 26# : LINUX platforms numerical subset key not usable
inside entry fields(SUN JRE1.3.0). #FIX : not fixed
yet#

an error is reported on a 250 message, this does not happen on WINDOWS.
#FIX : not fixed yet#
- # BUG 30# : local file not properly closed on UPLOAD(put).
#FIXED last version#
- # BUG 31# : Downloading a single or a multiple selection of
PDS MEMBERS should allways lead to a POPUP window asking for any File type
suffix on local site. #FIXED last version#
- # BUG 32# : Regression on V 1.00.0010 the MVS non
partitionned data set are not visible anymore #FIXED
