Have you seen this document yet? http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=FileUploadsWithCocoon. I'm sorry if it's not written very clearly - I wrote it late at night sort of spontaneously.
That gives some basic information on how cocoon handles things behind the scenes. The important part in your case is that you don't need to do the multipart parsing - it's already done for you by the time your action gets on the scene. You can then use the FilePart object to get the contents of the file via an InputStream and do whatever you want with it. If that doesn't help, give more of an idea of what you need to do on the backend.

I have a page which submits to a certain URI which invokes an action. This action needs to parse the multi-part form data (in the request object I believe) and then pass that data off to my j2ee backend for processing. My problem is that I do not see a way for me to create this MultipartParser or what not. The Cocoon request object does not as I understand it, provide a way for me to get the necessary data to create this parser (i.e. I need a HttpServletRequest), and since my editor does not implement the servlet interface, it does not receive the Request object from the servlet container as a parameter (i.e. doAction, etc). I feel like I am possibly barking up the wrong tree here. Is the action the appropriate place to do this? Should I instead implement a matcher to find this request object? thanks, Collin ---- Collin VanDyck AOL: djtcl Yahoo: webcollin --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
