README for blobby, the example application for JAWS --------------------------------------------------- Blobby is a simple application written using the ACE_Blob class, which is capable of doing both file uploads and downloads from the JAWS server. If a file is downloaded, the downloaded data is sent to standard output, so that it can be piped as necessary. It is an ACE application, and should be compiled exactly like any other ACE application. It accepts the following command line arguments: -r Read (download) the file from the server -w Write (upload) the file to the server (Default is Read file) -h hostname Use the server running on hostname (Default is localhost) -p port Port number of the server (Default is 80) -f filename The file to upload/download from the server -l length The number of bytes to read/write from the server -o offset The offset into the file to be read/written -d Puts blobby into debug mode, where it echoes its command line arguments
