Description

adiroiban's avatar @adiroiban reported
Trac ID trac#5712
Type enhancement
Created 2012-06-19 14:10:08Z

t.i.i.ITLSTransport defined the startTLS but it would be nice if it will also define stopTLS.

As as start, support for stopTLS can be added in twisted.internet._newtls.ConnectionMixin

I am working at FTPS support for twisted.protocols.ftp and stopTLS is required for implementing FTP CCC command.


Please let me know if you think that this API is useful and I can try to implement it.

Any comments about how would you like it to be implemented is much appreciated.

Cheers,
Adi

Research direction

Start in twisted.internet._newtls.ConnectionMixin and compare the existing startTLS behavior with the stopTLS addition requested for t.i.i.ITLSTransport. Determine the transport semantics needed by FTP CCC, then implement and verify stopTLS support in the connection mixin and interface.
