 ## Version 12.0.0 Changes
 
-The big and breaking change in this version is the removal of the connection retry code. This module no longer supports automatic connection retries when establishing the initial connection. This functionality was removed for a number of reasons. The main reasons are that it significantly complicated the connection handling code and error handling in particular and it was seldom useful. In most cases, if the cvonnection failed on thye first attempt, it would also fail in all subsequent attempts and often resulted in just extending the time to failure as multiple retries were attempted.

In most cases, if the connection failed on the first attempt, it would also fail in all subsequent attempts and often resulted in just extending the time to failure as multiple retries were attempted.
 
-The other reason this functionality was removed is because if you really want it, it is fairly straight forward to create your own wrapper around the connect call which uses one of the mnay promise retry packages available. Doing this is significantly easier when you don't need to cater for all the variables available when making a connection i.e. strict host verification, ssh agents, keys, proxies etc.
+Another reason this functionality was removed is because if you really want it, it is straight forward to create your own wrapper around the connect call which uses one of the mnay promise retry packages available. It is much simpler to add a retry mechanism for a specific application than it is to implement a flexible solution which supports all possible combination of connection options, authentication methods, proxies etc.

+## Version 12.0.1 Changes
+
+Bug Fixes
+
+-   Fix typo error in specification of generic error code in error handler. Typo was causing an undefined symbol error.
+-   Fix bug in stream error handling. Read and write streams had an error handler defined with 'once' rather than 'on'. This caused a bug when an API call caused more than one error. For example, a network connectivity error would cause a stream timeout error followed by a no response from remote host error when the error handler attempted to cleanup and destroy the remote stream. The second error whould not be handled and would bubble up to the parent node process, which would then exit with an unhandled exception error.
+-   Added calls to \_resetEventFlags() to finally clauses to ensure event flags are reset when temp listeners are removed. Without this change, global listeners would not fire when they should after their has been an earlier handled error in the last API call.

 ## Background
 
-In basic terms `ssh2-sftp-client` is a simple wrapper around the `ssh2` package which provides a promise base API for interacting with a remote SFTP server . The `ssh2` package provides an event based API for interacting with the `ssh` protocol. The `ssh2-sftp-client` package uses the `sftp` subsystem of this protocol to implement the basic operations typically associated with an `sftp` client.

 -   An error can either be due to a low level network error, such as a lost connection to the remote server or due to an operational error, such as a file not existing or not having the appropriate permissions for access.
 
--   Each of the available `SftpClient` methods wrap the method call inside a promise. In crwating eacvh promise, the class adds temporary event listenrs for the error, end and close events and links those liseners to the method's promise via it's `reject()` method.

--   If a promise is waiting to be fulfilled when either of the two types of errors occurs, the error will be communicated back to client code via a rejected promise.
+-   If a promise is waiting to be fulfilled when an error occurs, the error will be communicated back to the client code via the rejected promise.
 
--   When the `ssh2` emitter raises an event outside the context of any promise, that event will be handled by global event handlers. By default, these event handlers will log the event and will invalidate any existing socket connection objects, preventing any further API calls until a new connection is extablished.

+-   The `SftpClient` class constructor supports an optoinal second argument which is an objedct which can have any of the three properties error, end and close. The values associated with these properties are callback functions that will be run if an error event with?he same name as the property is raised and has not been handled by one of the temporary event handlers. The error callback should have a single parameter, the error raised by the event. The other callbacks have no arguments.
 
-The need for both global listeners and temporary promise listeners is because network end, close or error events can occur at any time, including in-betwseen API calls. During an API call, a promise is active and can be used to communicate event information back to the calling code via normal promise communication means i.e. async/await with try/catch or promise chain's then/catch mechanism. However, outside API calls, no promise exists and there is no reliable mechanism to return error and other event information back to calling code. You cannot reliably use try/cdatch to catch errorsx thrown inside event listenrs as you lack control over when the listener code runs. Your try/catch block can easily complete before the error is raised as there is no equivalent *await* type functionality in this situation.
+The need for both global listeners and temporary promise listeners is because network end, close or error events can occur at any time, including in-between API calls. During an API call, a promise is active and can be used to communicate event information back to the calling code via normal promise communication channels i.e. async/await with try/catch or promise chain's then/catch mechanism. However, outside API calls, no promise exists and there is no reliable mechanism to return error and other event information back to calling code. You cannot reliably use try/cdatch to catch errors thrown inside event listenrs as you lack control over when the listener code runs. Your try/catch block can easily complete before the error is raised as there is no equivalent *await* type functionality in this situation.
 
 As there is no simple default way to return error and other event information back to the calling code, `ssh2-sftp-client` doesn't try to. Instead, the default action is to just log the event information and invalidate any existing sftp connections. This strategy is often sufficient for many use cases. For those cases where it isn't, client code can pass in end, close and/or error listener functions when instantiating the `SftpClient` object. If provided, these listners will be executed whenever the default global listeners are executed, which is whenever the `ssh2` event emitter raises an end, close or error event which is not handled by one of the temporary promise linked event listeners.
 
-Version 11 of `ssh2-sftp-client` also changes the behaviour of the temporary promise linked *end* and *close* listeners. Prior to versioln 11, these listeners did not reject promises. They would only invalidate the underlying `ssh` connection object. Only the *error* listener would actually reject the associated promise. This was done because you cannot guarantee the order in which events are responded to.

+-   Error event occurs including error cause description. Listener catches event, creates an error object and calls the associated promise's reject function to reject the promise. The calling process receives a rejected promise object.
 
 -   End event occurs. The end listener catches the event and marks the connection object as invalid as the socket connection has been ended. There is no need to call the reject method of the associated promise as it has already been called by the error listener and you can only call one promise resolution function.
 
--   Close event occurs. This event means the socket connection has been closed. The listener will ensure any connection information has been invalidated. Aga8in, ther is no need to call the reject method of the associated promise as it has already been called by the error listener.
+-   Close event occurs. This event means the socket connection has been closed. The listener will ensure any connection information has been invalidated. Again, there is no need to call the reject method of the associated promise as it has already been called by the error listener.
 
-In some cases, no ende event is raised and you only get an error event followed by a close event. In versions of `ssh2-sftp-client` prior to version 11, neither the end or the close listeners attempted to call the reject method of the associated promise. It was assumed that all sftp servers would raise an error event whenever a connection was unexpectedly ended or closed. Unfortunately, it turns out some sftp servers are not well behaved and will terminate the connection without providing any error information or raising an error event. When this occurred in versions prior to version 11, it could result in either an API call hanging because its associated promise never gets rejected or resolved or the call gets rejected with a timeout error aftrer a significant delay.

When this occurred in versions prior to version 11, it could result in either an API call hanging because its associated promise never gets rejected or resolved or the call gets rejected with a timeout error aftrer a significant delay.
 
-In order to handle the possible hanging issue in version 11, the temporary promise linked end and close listeners have been updated to always call the promise's reject function if they fire. While this works, it can cause a minor issue. As wse cannot gurantee the order in which events are resonded to by listeners, it is possible that either the end or close listener may be executed before the error listener. When this occurs, the promise is rejected, but the only information wse have at that point is that the promise wsas reject due to either an end or close event. We don't yet have any details regarding what error has caused the unexpected end or close event. Furthermore, because only the first promise resolution function call has any effect, calling reject within the error listener (assuming an error event does eventually arrive) has no effect and does not communicate error information back to the caller. This means that in some circumstances, especially when working with some poorly behaved sftp servers, an sftp connection will be lost/closed with no indication as to reason. This can make diagnosis and bug tracking frustrating.

If you observe the same behaviour using plain `sftp` on the command line, the issue is likely due to server or remote platform limitations. Note that you should not use a GUI sftp client, like `Filezilla` or `winSCP` as such GUI programs often attempt to hide these server and platform incompatibilities and will take additional steps to simulate missing functionality etc. You want to use a CLI program which does as little as possible.

Bottom line, when it works, it tends to work well and be significantly faster than using just `get()` or `put()`. However, when developing code to run against different SFTP servers, especially where you are unable to test against each server, you are likely better off just using `get()` and `put()` or structuring your code so that users can select which method to use (this is what `ssh2-sftp-client` does - for example, see the `!downloadDir()` and `uploadDir()` methods.

 ### Adding Custom Handlers
 
 While the above strategies appear to work for the majority of use cases, there are always going to be edge cases which require more flexible or powerful event handling. To support this, the `on()` and `removeListener()` methods are provided. Any event listener added using the `on()` method will be added at the beginning of the list of handlers for that event, ensuring it will be called before any global or promise local events. See the documentation for the `on()` method for details.

 Error events are essentially asynchronous code. You don't know when such events will fire. Therefore, you cannot use a try/catch block to catch such event errors. Even creating an error handler which then throws an exception won't help as the key problem is that your try/catch block has already executed. There are a number of alternative ways to deal with this situation. However, the key symptom is that you see occasional uncaught error exceptions that cause your script to exit abnormally despite having try/catch blocks in your script. What you need to do is look at your code and find where errors are raised asynchronously and use an event handler or some other mechanism to manage any errors raised.

 ### Server Differences
 
 Not all SFTP servers are the same. Like most standards, the SFTP protocol has some level of interpretation and allows different levels of compliance. This means there can be differences in behaviour between different servers and code which works with one server will not work the same with another. For example, the value returned by *realpath* for non-existent objects can differ significantly. Some servers will throw an error for a particular operation while others will just return null, some servers support concurrent operations (such as used by fastGet/fastPut) while others will not and of course, the text of error messages can vary significantly. In particular, we have noticed significant differences across different platforms. It is therefore advisable to do comprehensive testing when the SFTP server is moved to a new platform. This includes moving from to a cloud based service even if the underlying platform remains the same. I have noticed that some cloud platforms can generate unexpected events, possibly related to additional functionality or features associated with the cloud implementation. For example, it appears SFTP servers running under Azure will generate an error event when the connection is closed even when the client has requested the connection be terminated. The same SFTP server running natively on Windows does not appear to exhibit such behaviour.

+  - Fix bug in stream error handling. Read and write streams had an error handler defined
+    with 'once' rather than 'on'. This caused a bug when an API call caused more than one
+    error. For example, a network connectivity error would cause a stream timeout error
+    followed by a no response from remote host error when the error handler attempted to
+    cleanup and destroy the remote stream. The second error whould not be handled and
+    would bubble up to the  parent node process, which would then exit with an unhandled
+    exception error.
+  - Added calls to _resetEventFlags() to finally clauses to ensure event flags are reset
+    when temp listeners are removed. Without this change, global listeners would not fire
+    when they should after their has been an earlier handled error in the last API call.
