File upload is done via either: a) The FileUpload widget - if your happy for the user to select one file at a time, or b) Via a Flash Movie that allows multiple file selects.
Which ever option you choose you would then build your UI on-top since you choose when to post the contents of FileUpload or the flash approach to your file uploading servlet (or other). If you don't want to roll your own flash movie / UI, and are happy to have a GWT wrapper around an existing library, you could try swfupload- gwt (http://www.ongwt.com/post/2009/03/14/A-GWT-wrapper-for-the- SWFUpload-library (via OnGWT)). >From experience, if you do roll your own solution multiple select solution then you will never get it pure GWT since you need a) a flash movie and b) use of Flash's ExternalInterface command to make call backs to GWT and JSNI to make calls from GWT to the Flash movie. You also need make sure you cope with the new Flash 10 security restriction (must click on the flash movie to open the file select rather than before, where you could click on a GWT component and send that click to the flash movie). //Adam On 16 Mar, 06:51, "vaibhav.saxena" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I want to have the widget like the orkut photo upload.
