RE: [fileUpload] [httpClient] CF file upload to Tomcat - sample code?
Yes, how to post from CF to the Tomcat server is the first issue. I
think we'll have to use httpClient to post. We can't use a form with a
file field, because you can't dynamically set the file name.
Then, there will be a return of a file from the server as a result of
what the server does with the xml file. I don't know how to handle that,
either.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
I'm not clear on what you mean by "next part" ... do you mean how to
post the xml from CF to the Tomcat server?
If so that's probably off-topic for commons-user list (but see cfhttp
tag http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-p58.htm)
Or are you asking about how to recieve the file on the Tomcat server?
Maybe this helps
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/using.html or maybe this
article

cle.html

I'm confused by this. If you use HttpClient, you'd be running on the
(ColdFusion?) server, uploading to another (Tomcat) server. If you use
"a form with a file field", you're talking about something that would
be posted by a browser to a (ColdFusion or Tomcat) server. Which are
you trying to do?

Again, I'm confused. If the file is coming back from a Tomcat server
to a ColdFusion server, then isn't this then a ColdFusion question?
You prefixed your subject line with [FileUpload], but none of what
you're asking appears to be related to FileUpload. Sorry if I'm
completely misunderstanding.
