FileWriter to send a ftp a file

[Savithri Devaraj]

Is it possible to use FileWriter class to send a file to an ftp site?
What I mean is, I want to be able to send files at a time instead of using a write(char[],..) or writing strings at a time. I need to ftp a few large files to a given site. Also, for ftping I intend to use URL and URL connection. Is there another way to do it?
Thanks in advance,
Savithri

Hi Savithri,
No I don't think you can use any File class. Check out this site for freeware FTP bean.
