Detailed Description

       FTP Operation Attributes.

       Operation attributes are used to control the security and performance of an FTP operation. These features
       are often dependent on the capabilities of the FTP server which you are going to access.

Function Documentation

globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_copy(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*dst,constglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*src)
       Create a duplicate of an attribute set.

       The duplicated attribute set has a deep copy of all data in the attribute set, so the original may be
       destroyed, while the copy is still valid.

       Parametersdst The attribute set to be initialized to the same values as src.
           src The original attribute set to duplicate.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_destroy(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr)
       Destroy an FTP client attribute set.

       Parametersattr A pointer to the attribute to destroy.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_init(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr)
       Initialize an FTP client attribute set.

       Parametersattr A pointer to the new attribute set.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_allocate(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constglobus_off_tallocated_size)
       Set/Get the allocate attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute lets the user set a size to be passed to the server before a put operation.

       This attribute is ignored for get operations.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           allocated_size The size to direct server to allocate.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_allow_ipv6(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tallow_ipv6)
       Set/Get the allow ipv6 attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows client library to make use of ipv6 when possible.

       Use of this is currently very experimental.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           allow_ipv6 GLOBUS_TRUE to allow ipv6 or GLOBUS_FALSE to disallow(default)

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_append(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tappend)
       Set/Get the append attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to append to a file on an FTP server, instead of replacing the existing
       file when doing a globus_ftp_client_put() or globus_ftp_client_transfer().

       This attribute is ignored on the retrieving side of a transfer, or a globus_ftp_client_get().

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           append The value of append attribute.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_authorization(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,gss_cred_id_tcredential,constchar*user,constchar*password,constchar*account,constchar*subject)
       Set/Get the authorization attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to pass authentication information to the ftp client library. This
       information is used to authenticate with the ftp server.

       The Globus FTP client library supports authentication using either the GSSAPI, or standard plaintext
       username and passwords. The type of authentication is determined by the URL scheme which is used for the
       individual get, put, or 3rd party transfer calls.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           credential The credential to use for authenticating with a GSIFTP server. This may be
           GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL to use the default credential.
           user The user name to send to the FTP server. When doing a gsiftp transfer, this may be set to NULL,
           and the default globusmap entry for the user's GSI identity will be usd.
           password The password to send to the FTP server. When doing a gsiftp transfer, this may be set to
           NULL.
           account The account to use for the data transfer. Most FTP servers do not require this.
           subject The subject name of the FTP server. This is only used when doing a gsiftp transfer, and then
           only when the security subject name does not match the hostname of the server (ie, when the server is
           being run by a user).

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_authz_assert(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constchar*authz_assert,globus_bool_tcache_authz_assert)
       Set/Get the authz_assert attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute lets the user set an AUTHORIZATION assertion to be passed to the server

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           authz_assert The AUTHORIZATION assertion.
           cache_authz_assert Boolean that specifies whether to cache this assertion for subsequent operations

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_control_protection(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_ftp_control_protection_tprotection)
       Set/Get the control channel protection attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       The control channel protection attribute allows the user to decide whether to encrypt or integrity check
       the command session between the client and the FTP server. This attribute is only relevant if used with a
       gsiftp URL.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           protection The value of control channel protection attribute.

       Note
           The clear and safe protection levels are treated identically, with the client integrity checking all
           commands. The confidential and private protection levels are treated identically, with the client
           encrypting all commands.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_data_protection(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_ftp_control_protection_tprotection)
       Set/Get the data channel protection attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           protection The value of data channel protection attribute.

       Note
           Only safe and private protection levels are supported by gsiftp.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_data_security(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,inttype,void*credential)
       Set/Get the data channel security context type and credential.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           type The type of credential. Currently only 'P' is supported, and requires a gss_cred_id_t for the
           credential.
           credential A credential appropriate for the type specified.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_dcau(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constglobus_ftp_control_dcau_t*dcau)
       Set/Get the data channel authentication attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       Data channel authentication is a GridFTP extension, and may not be supported by all servers. If a server
       supports it, then the default is to delegate a credential to the server, and authenticate all data
       channels with that delegated credential.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           dcau The value of data channel authentication attribute.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_delayed_pasv(constglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tdelayed_pasv)
       Set/Get whether or not delayed passive should be used

       This attribute allows the user to enable delayed passive so the server can provide the passive address
       after it knows the filename to be transferred.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           delayed_pasv globus_bool_t

       Note
           Delayed passive is a GridFTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_disk_stack(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constchar*driver_list)
       Set/Get the gridftp xio driver stack used for the file storage.

       This attribute allows the user to control which xio drivers will be used for file DSI only. This is an
       experimental feature of the gridftp server. Only works for third party transfers.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           driver_list driver list in the following format: driver1[:driver1opts][,driver2[:driver2opts]][...].
           The string 'default' will reset the stack list to the server default.

       Note
           This is a GridFTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_layout(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constglobus_ftp_control_layout_t*layout)
       Set/Get the layout attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to control the layout of a file being transferred to a striped Grid-FTP
       server. The striping layout defines what regions of a file will be stored on each stripe of a multiple-
       striped ftp server.

       The layout attribute is used only when the data is being stored on the server (on a put or 3rd party
       transfer). This attribute is ignored for stream mode data transfers.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           layout The value of layout attribute.

       Seealsoglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_parallelism(), globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode()Note
           This is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_list_uses_data_mode(constglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tlist_uses_data_mode)
       Set/Get whether or not list data will use the current data mode

       This attribute allows the user to allow list data to be transferred using the current data channel mode.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           list_uses_data_mode globus_bool_t

       Note
           List data transfers in nonstandard modes is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP
           servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_ftp_control_mode_tmode)
       Set/Get the file transfer mode attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to choose the data channel protocol used to transfer a file. There are two
       modes supported by this library: stream mode and extended block mode.

       Stream mode is a file transfer mode where all data is sent over a single TCP socket, without any data
       framing. In stream mode, data will arrive in sequential order. This mode is supported by nearly all FTP
       servers.

       Extended block mode is a file transfer mode where data can be sent over multiple parallel connections and
       to multiple data storage nodes to provide a high-performance data transfer. In extended block mode, data
       may arrive out-of-order. ASCII type files are not supported in extended block mode.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           mode The value of mode attribute

       Seealsoglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_parallelism(), globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_layout()Note
           Extended block mode is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_net_stack(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constchar*driver_list)
       Set/Get the gridftp xio driver stack used for the data channel.

       This attribute allows the user to control which xio drivers will be used for data transport. The driver
       MUST be installed and allowed by the server or the transfer/get/put will result in an error.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           driver_list driver list in the following format: driver1[:driver1opts][,driver2[:driver2opts]][...].
           The string 'default' will reset the stack list to the server default.

       Note
           This is a GridFTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_parallelism(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constglobus_ftp_control_parallelism_t*parallelism)
       Set/Get the parallelism attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to control the level of parallelism to be used on an extended block mode
       file transfer. Currently, only a 'fixed' parallelism level is supported. This is interpreted by the FTP
       server as the number of parallel data connections to be allowed for each stripe of data. Currently, only
       the 'fixed' parallelism type is

       This attribute is ignored in stream mode.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           parallelism The value of parallelism attribute.

       Seealsoglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_layout(), globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode()Note
           This is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_read_all(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tread_all,globus_ftp_client_data_callback_tintermediate_callback,void*intermediate_callback_arg)
       Set/Get the read_all attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to pass in a single buffer to receive all of the data for the current
       transfer. This buffer must be large enough to hold all of the data for the transfer. Only one buffer may
       be registered with globus_ftp_client_register_read() when this attribute is used for a get.

       In extended block mode, this attribute will cause data to be stored directly into the buffer from
       multiple streams without any extra data copies.

       If the user sets the intermediate callback to a non-null value, this function will be called whenever an
       intermediate sub-section of the data is received into the buffer.

       This attribute is ignored for globus_ftp_client_put() or globus_ftp_client_third_party_transfer()
       operations.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           read_all The value of read_all attribute.
           intermediate_callback Callback to be invoked when a subsection of the data has been retreived. This
           callback may be GLOBUS_NULL, if the user only wants to be notified when the data transfer is
           completed.
           intermediate_callback_arg User data to be passed to the intermediate callback function.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_storage_module(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constchar*module_name,constchar*module_args)
       Set/Get the gridftp storage module (DSI).

       This attribute allows the user to control what backend module they use with the gridftp server. The
       module MUST be implemented by the server or the transfer/get/put will result in an error.

       This attribute is ignored in stream mode.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           module_name The backend storage module name
           module_args The backend storage module parameters

       Note
           This is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_striped(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_bool_tstriped)
       Set/Get the striped attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to force the client library to used the FTP commands to do a striped data
       transfer, even when the user has not requested a specific file layout via the layout attribute. This is
       useful when transferring files between servers which use the server side processing commands ERET or ESTO
       to transform data and send it to particular stripes on the destination server.

       The layout attribute is used only when the data is being stored the server (on a put or 3rd party
       transfer). This attribute is ignored for stream mode data transfers.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           striped The value of striped attribute.

       Seealsoglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_parallelism(), globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_layout()globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode()Note
           This is a Grid-FTP extension, and may not be supported on all FTP servers.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_tcp_buffer(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,constglobus_ftp_control_tcpbuffer_t*tcp_buffer)
       Set/Get the TCP buffer attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to control the TCP buffer size used for all data channels used in a file
       transfer. The size of the TCP buffer can make a significant impact on the performance of a file transfer.
       The user may set the buffer to either a system-dependent default value, or to a fixed value.

       The actual implementation of this attribute is designed to be as widely interoperable as possible. In
       addition to supporting the SBUF command described in the GridFTP protocol extensions document, it also
       supports other commands and site commands which are used by other servers to set TCP buffer sizes. These
       are

       • SITE RETRBUFSIZE

       • SITE RBUFSZ

       • SITE RBUFSIZ

       • SITE STORBUFIZE

       • SITE SBUFSZ

       • SITE SBUFSIZ

       • SITE BUFSIZE

       This attribute is affects any type of data transfer done with the ftp client library.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           tcp_buffer The value of tcp_buffer attribute.

   globus_result_tglobus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_type(globus_ftp_client_operationattr_t*attr,globus_ftp_control_type_ttype)
       Set/Get the file representation type attribute for an ftp client attribute set.

       This attribute allows the user to choose the file type used for an FTP file transfer.  The  file  may  be
       transferred as either ASCII or a binary image.

       When transferring an ASCII file, the data will be transformed in the following way

       • the high-order bit will be set to zero

       • end-of  line  characters  will be converted to a CRLF pair for the data transfer, and then converted to
         native format before being returned to the user's data callbacks.

       The default type for the ftp client library is binary.

       Parametersattr The attribute set to query or modify.
           type The value of type attribute.
