The FormFile interface doesn't give you that possebility. You can only get the InputStream to that "file". If you need an access path to a file, you have to copy the stream to another tmp file, delete (destroy) the FormFile, and pass the new created tmp file to your business object. It's a matter of the interface (the actual implementation is a DiskFile, which has a path to the server side created file. If you try to use this one, you can create code that is not compatible with future implementations of strut's upload feature).

Once I get this, I need to pass this info to another method which will extract the contents of this file and insert them in database. Because of the already existing method signature I can pass only the fully qulified file name only to the method.
