Hi all, I've been mucking around with some file upload stuff and noticed a change in behaviour since Joren's replacement for maybeupload was done back in Feb. Before the change it was possible to still get hold of the reference to the uploaded file from the request object in an action thus enabling you to rewrite the file anywhere e.g. into a db BLOB. This is now not easily possible since the request does not contain the right stuff any more. I note from the archives that when the code was submitted the suggestion was that control could be passed to an action to determine how and where to write the file but the final code is driven by the web.xml parameters.
I would really like to have the ability to chose as often as each request where the uploaded file is to be put and will have a more detailed look at the code over the weekend to see what might need doing. To me it seems there are a number of possible choices: 1. a small patch to the MultipartRequest stuff that leaves the required info in the request and then an action to do an upload to a place specified via a param 2. an alternative MultipartRequest handler 3. a complex action that works if SimpleRequestHandler is used and not Multipart - i.e. shift the work along (urgh?) 4. something else maybe Just interested on soliciting some thoughts on this whilst I tip tappity away!
