You shouldn't have to worry about the request processor. The multipart handler is pluggable, so you can simply replace the one Struts uses with your own by specifying the class name in the 'multipartClass' attribute of the <controller> element in your Struts config file.
The multipart handler is invoked at the point at which the form bean is being populated from the request. There's some slightly hairy magic that goes on to make this work in a Servlets 2.2 environment, and I'm looking forward to removing that for Struts 2. For now, I'd recommend staying away from there and doing what you need inside the multipart handler itself. -- Martin Cooper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello everybody! I wrote to the Mailing-List some days ago. That was about the displaying of progress-bars during fileupload. I made progress on this in that manner that I have a patched version of the commons-fileupload-library which can do the thing. But now I have to change the way Struts handles the FileUpload. I know that I can overwrite the RequestProcessor and implement my own one. I hope that it is possible to achieve my goal by doing this. What I basically need, is the sport where Struts reads the files from the multipart-request into the DiskFileUpload, since at this spot the progress bar tugs in. Can somebody tell me a good way to do this? I know that there is a CommonsMultipartRequestHandler which starts on doing this. But where exactly does Struts utilize this thing? Thx for any help! Hope this is not too specific. _______________________________________ Tim Adler, Abt.
