No, FTP means a lot of problems. I always planned it with HTTP support only.

Are you planning on FTP support in the future? There are a few sites that use FTP (eg. GigaUp.fr).

Java might not support FTP by default but AFAIK there are 3rd party libraries available.

What if the final download link is an authenticated ftp link?
I could only see get and post method in the API.

Thanks for the prompt reply, and swing is ok to me ;)

Then if the user selects multiple files, could i add multiple download tasks within the runner class?

First - it's wordrider.net , not wordrider.com ;-)

It's planned, but it's not possible yet, but every plugin is able to display any dialog to user you want.
getDialogSupport() allows this:

/**
     * Shows simple OK/Cancel dialog with given content of given container
     *
     * @param container   a container with SWING components to show
     * @param dialogTitle title for dialog
     * @return returns true, if user pressed OK button, false otherwise
     * @throws Exception if something went wrong or thread was interrupted
     */
    boolean showOKCancelDialog(Component container, String dialogTitle) throws Exception;

where container is eg. JPanel --> see some Netbeans Matisse tutorial on the web how to use it to create Panel with components

I expect you know Java Swing or Java at least.

Hi,

First of all, thanks for your work on Freerapid downloader. Recently I
am going to develop new plugins for a Chinese website tora.to
I have read all of your screencasts which are really awesome, and get
started to develop my own plugin.

So bascially, I'm testing with this web page
[tora.to] (Well it is in Chinese and Japanese,
but you can see the "quoted area" provides the downloadable files)
The problem is, each tora.to download page is providing a collection
of files available to download, instead of a single file.
So I wonder how to deal with this situation, is it possible for frd to
display a list for the user the choose the file? If it is, what
existing plugin could show how it works?

Thank you for checking my question :)

Meow
