Description Sebastien Bracquemont CLA 2004-05-25 06:54:11 EDT
Platform Details:
Eclipse Platform 3.0M8+FTP/WebDav 3.0M8 + PHPEclipse

As i was using the File Compare View, i was surprised by the terrible "Remote 
file too big" message.

After a little search, i think the bug is located in the source of the 
FTPRemoteTargetResource class.

=>line 51
private static final int MAX_TRANSFER_SIZE = 32788;

I think it would be preferable to add an FTP submenu in the Team options of the 
preference Panel and keep this value user configurable.

That's a great idea. Care to provide a patch?
Comment 2 Michael Valenta CLA 2005-05-06 17:12:01 EDT
The FTP plugin is currently not being actively developed or maintained.
Comment 3 Michael Valenta CLA 2007-04-30 11:19:54 EDT
We are in the process of removing the Team FTP/WebDAV feature since the DSDP Target management component (http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/) provides complimentary functionality and will be shipping as part of Europa. Although the feature will not be part of Europa, we have provided a link to a 3.3 compatible version of the feature at http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Team_Development.

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
