/**
* A class that implements the FTP protocol according to
* RFCs <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0959.txt">959</A>,
* <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2228.txt">2228</A>,
* <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2389.txt">2389</A>,
* <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2428.txt">2428</A>,
* <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3659.txt">3659</A>,
* <A href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4217.txt">4217</A>.
* Which includes support for FTP over SSL/TLS (aka ftps).
*
* {@code FtpClient} provides all the functionalities of a typical FTP
* client, like storing or retrieving files, listing or creating directories.
* A typical usage would consist of connecting the client to the server,
* log in, issue a few commands then logout.
* Here is a code example:
* <pre>
* FtpClient cl = FtpClient.create();
* cl.connect("ftp.gnu.org").login("anonymous", "john.doe@mydomain.com".toCharArray())).changeDirectory("pub/gnu");
* Iterator&lt;FtpDirEntry&gt; dir = cl.listFiles();
* while (dir.hasNext()) {
* FtpDirEntry f = dir.next();
* System.err.println(f.getName());
* }
* cl.close();
* }
* </pre>
* <p><b>Error reporting:</b> There are, mostly, two families of errors that
* can occur during an FTP session. The first kind are the network related issues
* like a connection reset, and they are usually fatal to the session, meaning,
* in all likelyhood the connection to the server has been lost and the session
* should be restarted from scratch. These errors are reported by throwing an
* {@link IOException}. The second kind are the errors reported by the FTP server,
* like when trying to download a non-existing file for example. These errors
* are usually non fatal to the session, meaning more commands can be sent to the
* server. In these cases, a {@link FtpProtocolException} is thrown.</p>
* <p>
* It should be noted that this is not a thread-safe API, as it wouldn't make
* too much sense, due to the very sequential nature of FTP, to provide a
* client able to be manipulated from multiple threads.
*
