Hello, I want to run the example 'helloworld_ftp_action' today. But I got some questions
I started a ftp server 192.168.1.1 with username sa and password sa.
after deploy the .esb archive, the jboss-esb.xml as follows

<providers>
 <ftp-provider name="FTPprovider" hostname="192.168.1.1" >
 <ftp-bus busid="helloFTPChannel" >
 <ftp-message-filter
 username="sa"
 password="sa"
 passive="false"
 directory="jbossesb"
 input-suffix=".dat"
 work-suffix=".esbWorking"
 post-delete="false"
 post-suffix=".COMPLETE"
 error-delete="false"
 error-suffix=".HAS_ERROR"
 />
 </ftp-bus>
 </ftp-provider>

 <jms-provider name="JBossMQ"
 connection-factory="ConnectionFactory"
 jndi-context-factory="org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory"
 jndi-URL="localhost" >

 <jms-bus busid="quickstartEsbChannel">
 <jms-message-filter
 dest-type="QUEUE"
 dest-name="queue/quickstart_helloworld_ftp_esb"
 selector="source='fromHelloworldFTPAction'"
 />
 </jms-bus>

 </jms-provider>

 <schedule-provider name="cronExample">
 <cron-schedule scheduleid="cron-schedule" cronExpression="0/5 * * * * ?"/>
 </schedule-provider>

 </providers>

 <services>
 <service
 category="myCategory"
 name="myFileListener"
 description="Hello World File Action (esb listener)" >
 <listeners>
 <ftp-listener name="FtpGateway"
 busidref="helloFTPChannel"
 maxThreads="1"
 is-gateway="true"
 scheduleidref="cron-schedule"/>
 <jms-listener name="helloWorldFileAction"
 busidref="quickstartEsbChannel"
 maxThreads="1"
 />
 </listeners>
 <actions>
 <action name="action1"
 class="org.jboss.soa.esb.samples.quickstart.helloworldftpaction.MyAction"
 process="displayMessage,playWithMessage"
 />
 </actions>
 </service>
 </services>

</jbossesb>

In FTP server I can see that the sa has connect to it.
After I call the target 'ant runtest', it only create a file on FTP server but didn't invoke any method in JbossESB.
Here is the test class

package org.jboss.soa.esb.samples.quickstart.helloworldftpaction.test;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.PrintStream;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;

public class CreateTestFile {

 public static void main(final String[] args) {
 if (args.length != 5)
 {
 System.err.println("Usage: java " + CreateTestFile.class.getName() + " <hostname> <username> <password> <filename> <contents>") ;
 System.exit(1) ;
 }
 else
 {
 final String hostname = args[0] ;
 final String username = args[1] ;
 final String password = args[2] ;
 final String filename = args[3] ;
 final String contents = args[4] ;

 final URL url ;
 final String filenameVal ;
 if (filename.charAt(0) == '/')
 {
 filenameVal = (filename.length() > 1 ? "%2F" + filename.substring(1) : "%2F") ;
 }
 else
 {
 filenameVal = filename ;
 }
 try
 {
 url = new URL("ftp://" + username + ":" + password + "@" + hostname + "/" + filenameVal) ;
 }
 catch (final MalformedURLException murle)
 {
 exit("Invalid URL: " + filenameVal, murle, 2) ;
 return ; // for compiler
 }
 final URLConnection connection ;
 try
 {
 connection = url.openConnection() ;
 }
 catch (final IOException ioe)
 {
 exit("Error accessing location: " + filenameVal, ioe, 3) ;
 return ; // for compiler
 }
 connection.setDoOutput(true) ;
 final OutputStream os ;
 try
 {
 os = connection.getOutputStream() ;
 }
 catch (final IOException ioe)
 {
 exit("Error obtaining output stream for location: " + filenameVal, ioe, 4) ;
 return ; // for compiler
 }

 try
 {
 final PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(os) ;
 ps.print(contents) ;
 ps.close() ;
 }
 finally
 {
 try
 {
 os.close() ;
 }
 catch (final IOException ioe) {} //ignore
 }
 }
 }

 private static void exit(final String message, final Throwable th, final int exitValue)
 {
 System.err.println(message) ;
 th.printStackTrace() ;
 System.exit(exitValue) ;
 }
}

First I want to know what does this mean in jboss-esb.xml?

<schedule-provider name="cronExample">
 <cron-schedule scheduleid="cron-schedule" cronExpression="0/5 * * * * ?"/>
 </schedule-provider>

Second, in the test class, does the value of hostname, username, password is the FTP's or others? (If FTP's only put the file to FTP not via ESB)

Third, If I want to put the file 'upload.txt' to the FTP and download the file 'download.xml' from the ftp server via JbossESB. How should I do?
