Hi guys -
When I have to deal w/ multipart (form upload etc), I use the O'reilly code.
When I work w/ multipart in other languages
it is built in. Why isn't this the case w/ servlets? I would like to be
able to change the ENCTYPE in the form,
without having to change the servlet that reads in that info. Right now it
is tightly coupled. Ideally
I would like to be able to do:
req.getParameter("name"); <- can read in whether multitype or not
and for the files either:
// just get it as a string
String contents = (String) req.getParameter("uploadedfile");
// convention means that <formname>-filename returns the name of the file
that was uploaded
String filename = (String) req.getParameter("uploadedfile-filename");
OR:
// Returns a special type that allows you to write out the file, call
mpfile.getName() etc.
MultipartFile mpfile = (MultipartFile) req.getParameter("uploadedfile");
