Overview
Winie is a network utility to put files on the web using
HTTP/1.1. The main feature of Winie is its ability to solve the
"lost update
problem" by storing ETags (like
Web Commander) . Winie use
the client side api of
Jigsaw, the W3C Web
server.
Note: Winie needs at least jdk1.2.2 (there is a bug in
Classloader of jdk1.2.1).
- Features
-
- PUT, GET and DELETE files on the web
- Version conflict detection, see "The lost
update problem"
- Retries when connection closed (like wget does)
- Upload all files located in a directory (recursively or
not)
- Support for proxies (HTTP, SOCKS)
- Support for metadata configuration (language, charset)
