Class FileUploadBase

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    DiskFileUpload, FileUpload
    public abstract class FileUploadBase
extends java.lang.Object
    High level API for processing file uploads.

    This class handles multiple files per single HTML widget, sent using multipart/mixed encoding type, as specified by RFC 1867. Use parseRequest(RequestContext) to acquire a list of FileItems associated with a given HTML widget.

    How the data for individual parts is stored is determined by the factory used to create them; a given part may be in memory, on disk, or somewhere else.
