send_next_directory limitation about lwip-ftpd

[toelke]

As far as I can see the buffer of 1k (https://github.com/toelke/lwip-ftpd/blob/master/ftpd.c#L510) is filled and then send_next_directory returns, presumably to be called again at a later time when that stack had time to send data.

If Simons answer in http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?48056 has not helped you, please tell me. I will have a second, longer look at the code.

Cheers,
Philipp

On the other hand, this might actually be an explanation for #1 .

Hello Philipp.
I increased my buffer size but it only delays the moment where the problem occurs.
It's a shame that the code provides several call to the send_next_directory function, but that it only fills a buffer.
I will have to rewrite the ftp daemon...

I tried the code as it is running on our devices: I have no problems with listing a directory of more than 500 files (32k of listing).

I assume that there is some problem in your port. Please ask on the lwip-users mailing list about this. I read that list and will of course help the thread along.

Cheers,
Philipp
