@file Base FileTransfer class.

Classes extending this class perform file operations on directories not writable by the webserver. To achieve this, the class should connect back to the server using some backend (for example FTP or SSH). To keep security, the password should always be asked from the user and never stored. For safety, all methods operate only inside a "jail", by default the Backdrop root.

FileTransfer::isFile abstract public function Checks if a particular path is a file (not a directory).
FileTransfer::checkPath protected final function Checks that the path is inside the jail and throws an exception if not.
FileTransfer::factory static function Classes that extend this class must override the factory() static method.
FileTransfer::connect abstract public function Connects to the server.
FileTransfer::copyDirectory public final function Copies a directory.
FileTransfer::copyDirectoryJailed protected function Copies a directory.
FileTransfer::copyFile public final function Copies a file.
FileTransfer::copyFileJailed abstract protected function Copies a file.
FileTransfer::createDirectory public final function Creates a directory.
FileTransfer::createDirectoryJailed abstract protected function Creates a directory.
FileTransfer::__get function Implementation of the magic __get() method.
