[lwip-devel] [task #7891] FTP Client for lwip ready for test

[Simon Goldschmidt]

Follow-up Comment #8, task #7891 (project lwip):

I totally agree about your socket vs. raw API statements. But if you want to
save RAM or processing time: you can always mix raw-API-apps and socket-apps
in the same product, that's how we do it: port the existing socket apps and
develop our own raw API apps.

On the other hand, as much as I apprechiate having an FTP client for lwIP:
how does this relate to lwIP if it is really a socket application? Having the
raw- and netconn-APIs, I think we should focus on applications for these (more
efficient) APIs and leave the generic socket API apps to the rest of the
world... (just my own opinion, though - although it's always better to have a
socket FTP client than no FTP client at all).

Please create a new task for this. I'm eager to look at the changes, although
I must say I didn't have much time to look at lwIP's PPP yet, I think
especially for mobile devices, PPP is a very interesting feature and the
current developers (including me) can't say much about it :-(
