fileupload issue
I'm running tomcat 5.0.27, with fileupload.
Currently testing on windows 2000, with a production target of Linux.
Given a windows file, with a name containing spaces
'my documents/file.ext' I'm presuming Linux may well cough
at creating such a file.
Is there a way of uploading the file (with spaces)
and then writing the file with, say, spaces replaced
with underscore?
I'm currently using
String fileName = fn;
if (fileName.indexOf(" ") != -1)
fileName ="'"+fileName+"'"; // quote if holds spaces
File uploadedFile = new File(AreaDir +sd.pathsep +fn);
if ((uploadedFile.exists() && sd.overwrite) ||
(!uploadedFile.exists()))
{
if ((uploadedFile.exists() && sd.overwrite)){
logger.info(userName + "file overwrite on " + fn);
//Send email too. FIXME
}
try {
item.write(uploadedFile);
} catch (java.lang.Exception err) {
retval= sd.fileWriteError;//failed upload
logger.error(userName+
"Error on writing file to the archive. " + err);
}//end catch
}
else {
retval = sd.fileExistsError; //file exists
}
return retval;
I can't see how I can intercept the filename
to make the changes needed?
Regards DaveP.

Linux has no problem with spaces in filenames. A lot of us Linux users
have problems with spaces in filenames, but that's only culture, not
technology. I think Linux filenames can include everything except for
the path separator (/) (even newlines and other strange stuff are
allowed).

I guess I'm not understanding what you mean by "intercept the
filename". You have *complete* control over the file name if you're
writing the file to disk. You can name the file whatever you want and
put it wherever you want. In the code above, there is only one line
(item.write()) that has anything to do with FileUpload - the rest is
your file name manipulation code. Isn't that where you'd "intercept"
it and change the name to whatever you want? I'm not getting it,
sorry...
