RE: uploading party content

Hi Abdullah,
                You won't get the form data directly when you use
multipart/form-data we need to process the request the get the parameters.
We use java end point to do that. I am not sure if it works with simple
methods.

Here is what I did 

I created a utility method that gets all the parameters when posted from
form of enctype as multipart/form-data

so here are some implementation pointers  - 

I included 
import org.apache.commons.fileupload.servlet.ServletFileUpload;
import org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItemFactory;

then in the method I used 

FileItemFactory factory = new DiskFileItemFactory();
ServletFileUpload upload = new ServletFileUpload(factory);

And further did

List items = upload.parseRequest(request);

Now iterate the items list

While iterating inside the loop you can fetch the parameters

if (item.isFormField()) {
        String fieldName = item.getFieldName();


Note: item is an iterator object

Subject: uploading party content

Hi All,


I have a user registration form, wherein the user fill all the user details
and can also upload a file.

I have made the form enctype="multipart/form-data", method="post" and
action="<@ofbizUrl>createUser</@ofbizUrl>"

Below is my "createUser" request-map :

<request-map uri="createUser>
        <event type="simple" path="com/test/UserEvents.xml"
invoke="validateUserForm"/>
        <response name="success" type="request" value="createUserService"/>
</request-map>

I am validation the user registration form using simple-method,
simple-map-processor.

Now the issue is when I submit the form the form data is not submitted and
that's why the validation fails,
and if I remove enctype="multipart/form-data" the form data is submitted but
I need to use enctype for file upload.


What do I need to do to make the form work with the simple-method validation
and enctype ?


Thanks,
Abdullah
