Apache File Upload - Create class and reuse it

[Kiran Badi <ki...@poonam.org>]

Hi ,
I am currently using apache file upload to upload around 10 Images per 
form and this solution seems to be working perfecly for me in case if I 
pull all the values of the form in the single servlet.

Now I was thinking of making a  class for just file upload and then 
reuse it across other forms.I have close to 25 form fields and out of 
these 10 are file input fields.Can someone suggest me some better way of 
doing this.One of the options I was thinking of breaking the existing 
form in 2 parts one with plain form and pull the values via 
request.getparameter and then image upload form with multipart enc.I 
store the images in the file drive and then add image name to the 
DB.Currently I have a single table for 25 fields and breaking up the 
form might break my table structure as well.Being new to all these 
things, I am running short of any ideas.Can someone help me here.

I am subscribed to apache file upload,so believe I might receive some 
help here.

I am not sure why anyone wants to upload 10 image files in one form
submit!  But assuming the business requirement is to blame, yes, you can do
as you explained below.

If I were you, I would split the file uploads to one (or max 2) per request
(or form submit, as in your case). If the user is connecting to the app on
a low bandwidth network, uploading 10 files and 15 other relevant
information in one form submit can take quite a while.  If the user doesn't
get a feedback soon, they might get disenchanted and cancel out.
