Hi,
Thanks for putting together Commons FileUpload - can see many advantages in
using it. Whilst looking at the APIs I realised that the detection of files
that are larger than the user-defined size limit set as...
ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);
upload.setFileSizeMax(10000000L);
will only operate AFTER the file has been received in the servlet request.
Certainly for my purposes, this would be too late. I would not want my user to
wait for ages while her browser tries to post, say, a 2 GB file - when the
file
size limit is 10Mb. Given that javascript cannot obtain access to local files
(and hence detect the problem early), this is a thorny problem.
Have I miscounstrued things? Any suggestions? Would the streaming API help?
regards,
Rob
