Re: problem with updating binary files

I use following function:

public void addFile(String p_file) throws Exception{

        AddCommand add = new AddCommand();
        File file = new File(p_file);
        File[] files = new File[]{file};
        add.setFiles(files);
        try {
             client.executeCommand(add, globalOption);
        } catch (CommandException ce) {}
   }

There is any function in class AddCommand which allows set -kb property??
 best regards,
DD
