Subject: Setting filename in response
: I've written a servlet which opens a file on the local harddrive and
: then sends the file's data back to the client. This works fine, but
the
: default filename the browser suggests is messed up and I'd like to
be
: able to set that. I've tried to set some headers in the
response-object
: like "filename" and "name", but it didn't work.
:
: Below is the code I use currently; may not be very efficient, but it
works.
:
: ====================================================
:
: UploadedFile file = cgResponse.getFile();
:
: ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
: BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(
: new FileInputStream(
: file.getFolder() + "/" + file.getName()
: ),
: 1024
: );
:
: response.setContentType(file.getContentType());
: response.setContentLength((int)file.getSize());
:
: int i;
: while ((i = in.read()) != -1) {
: out.write(i);
: }
:
: out.flush();
: out.close();
: in.close();

: ====================================================

: UploadedFile is a class which contains information about a
: specific file, like its location, content type, size etc.
