Shift-it

Collection of low-level HTTP and FTP file transfer tools

Why?

.Net has some pretty good FTP and HTTP libraries built in. However, they aren't amazingly unit-test friendly. They also wrap a lot of status results in exceptions. The protocol strictness of the libraries is also problematic when dealing with the general internet.

FTP

An old and battle hardend FTP client library, works with many old and cranky FTP servers that the standard .Net libraries can't handle.

HTTP

A HTTP client that can accept a reasonable level of invalid protocol from servers. This is a blocking, synchronous library that uses only .Net sockets, not WebClient or HttpWebRequest, and has a lot of replaceable components.
