upload a file from a form

[Patrice Le Cozler <pl...@dexem.com>]

Hello,

I need to upload a XML file from a form and parse it to put the datas it
contains in a database.

So I wrote my form like this :

|   <form method="post" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"
action="$link.setPage("Index.vm").setAction("SQL")">
|       upload :
|         <input type=file name="upfile">
|         <input type="submit" name="eventSubmit_doUpload"
value="Upload">
|   </form>

...and the corresponding SQL.java like that :

|        public void doUpload(RunData data, Context context)
|     throws Exception
|     {
|      Log.debug("Upload : "+data.getParameters().getString("upfile"));
|     }

( the Log.debug method just allows me to verify that the doUpload method
is called when I press the "Upload" button of the form )

but all I get in my log file is :

Upload :

so where's the file name ?

thanks

Patrice

Fulcrum (and T2.1) comes with its own multipart-form parser.

Use something like (AFAIR):
data.getParameters().getFileItem("upfile").getFileName()

Look also ar o.a.f.services.upload.FileItem interface.

The Servlet API does not automatically parse file uploads, but Turbine
can.  See the UploadService.

You need to parse the data different.  Servlet API does
not parse multipart/form-data.  I would reccommend o'reilly's
org.oreilly.servlet package.  go to www.oreilly.org for more
information.  It's a java package written by Jason Hunter
(who also wrote the O'Reilly Java Servlet book).  You MUST
buy the book to legally use the classes.
