The template contains the ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data",
uses METHOD="POST", and the action is my handler.
I initialize the object with:
my $r = 'Apache'->request();
my $apr = 'Apache::Request'->new($r);
From within my local CGI class I get the Apache::Request class reference
from
the passed hash ref and set up the meta-data:
$self->{_ApacheRequest} = $args->{ApacheRequest};
This line always returns undef (but it works with the example program):
$self->{_ApacheRequestUpload} = $self->{_ApacheRequest}->upload;
I have also tried in the init object:
my $upload = $apr->upload;
Thank you,
Dave
