Class Scp

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.ivy.plugins.repository.ssh.Scp

    public class Scp

extends java.lang.Object

This class is using the scp client to transfer data and information for the repository.

It is based on the SCPClient from the ganymed ssh library from Christian Plattner, released under a BSD style license.

To minimize the dependency to the ssh library and because we needed some additional functionality, we decided to copy'n'paste the single class rather than to inherit or delegate it somehow.

Nevertheless credit should go to the original author.
