I don't know if I would suggest it, but you might be able to call - Dispatcher.getInstance().setMultipartSaveDir(String path)
Now, I can't remember if there is one dispatcher per thread, so you might have to call it in an interceptor. However, I would strongly suggest against doing that. I am working on an enhanced file upload plugin right now and will probably commit it to the sandbox by tomorrow. The problem with the stock file upload capability is that the FileItemFactory and FileUpload objects are not available to be overridden, and hardly any configuration is made visible. So, I've got a new JakartaMultiPartRequest class I'll have out by tomorrow. -Wes On Wed, Jun 3, 2009 at 4:37 PM, Andy <andrh...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > It defaults but I think he's wondering how he can set the dir programatically. > > > >> Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2009 15:35:33 -0500 >> Subject: Re: About the "struts.multipart.saveDir" for file upload >> From: burtonrho...@gmail.com >> To: user@struts.apache.org >> >> I wasn't aware that it was required.
