Hello,
I am develloping a systemtray application that sends parameters of a record
to a servlet, however this is working perfectly with files smaller than 1mb
but if i try to send larger files it crashes. Im using Swing as client. (the
problem is at the Attachment parameter) I've been searching a few days for
this but i couldn't find an answer, any help would be highly appreciated!
Code client:
ActionListener sendTask = new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
String request = "http://localhost:8080/rest/addTask";
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
PostMethod method = new PostMethod(request);
//conversion blob
File file = new File(txtUpload.getText());
try {
byte[] blob = getBytesFromFile(file);
String blobje = new String(blob,"ISO-8859-1");
method.addParameter("description",
txtOmschrijving.getText());
method.addParameter("attachment", blobje);
method.addParameter("contentType", new
MimetypesFileTypeMap().getContentType(file));
method.addParameter("fileName",file.getName());
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace(); //To change body of catch statement
use File | Settings | File Templates.
}
// Send POST request
try {
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);
System.out.println(statusCode);
InputStream rstream = null;
rstream = method.getResponseBodyAsStream();
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(rstream));
String line;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
br.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
txtOmschrijving.setText("");
txtUpload.setText("");
}
};
public static byte[] getBytesFromFile(File file) throws IOException {
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
// Get the size of the file
long length = file.length();
// You cannot create an array using a long type.
// It needs to be an int type.
// Before converting to an int type, check
// to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
// File is too large
}
// Create the byte array to hold the data
byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)length];
// Read in the bytes
int offset = 0;
int numRead = 0;
while (offset < bytes.length
&& (numRead=is.read(bytes, offset, bytes.length-offset)) >= 0) {
offset += numRead;
}
// Ensure all the bytes have been read in
if (offset < bytes.length) {
throw new IOException("Could not completely read file
"+file.getName());
}
// Close the input stream and return bytes
is.close();
return bytes;
}
Code on servlet:
public class AddTaskService extends HttpServlet {
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String description = request.getParameter("description");
String attachment = request.getParameter("attachment");
String fileName = request.getParameter("fileName");
String contentType = request.getParameter("contentType");
//parsing String to Blob
byte[] blobbinarie = attachment.getBytes("ISO-8859-1");
InputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(blobbinarie);
Blob blobje = Hibernate.createBlob(stream);
//getting TaskController
ServletContext context = getServletContext();
WebApplicationContext applicationContext =
WebApplicationContextUtils.getWebApplicationContext(context);
TaskController taskController = (TaskController)
applicationContext.getBean("taskController");
Date today = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();
Task task = new Task(description,blobje,today,contentType,fileName);
//try to add new Task into Database
taskController.createTask(task);
}
}
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
