["Mast, Thomas O" <tomast@xxxxxxx>]

Shouldn't be too hard, I've been working on that most of the afternoon/evening. I can connect and login fine, and the cd to my directory but am having some trouble getting the ftp->get to write to the file I want it to. I'll work on it more tonight and toss it into a Dialog when I get it speaking.

Subject: [Destiny] FTP Application For Milestone 4 - ATTN: Tom

Hi everyone / Tom,

There is a use case for an FTP application for this Milestone. Allow me to explain what I'd like to see for this:


 *   A simple QT dialog that allows you to connect to an FTP server to upload and download a file.
 *   The FTP server and account information can be hard-coded; no need to have an input on the dialog for this.

The usage for this Milestone should be as follows:


 *   Connect to an FTP server (your iLocker) and download a user profile

 *   Once downloaded, open it up in a text editor and alter one or more of the fields
 *   Upload the newly changed user profile
 *   Delete the user profile locally
 *   Download the profile again
 *   Open it locally to show that the upload and download functionality works.

This is a simple proof of concept so that we can learn the ropes of what types of issues may crop up when we need to do this within a game.

This should be a great reference: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/network-ftp.html

Let me know if you have any questions.
