Class FileUploadBase

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.apache.tomcat.util.http.fileupload.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(HttpServletRequest) 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.

Constructor Detail

FileUploadBase

public FileUploadBase()
Method Detail

isMultipartContent

public static final boolean isMultipartContent(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
Utility method that determines whether the request contains multipart content.

Parameters:
req - The servlet request to be evaluated. Must be non-null.
Returns:
true if the request is multipart; false otherwise.

getFileItemFactory

public abstract FileItemFactory getFileItemFactory()
Returns the factory class used when creating file items.

Returns:
The factory class for new file items.

setFileItemFactory

public abstract void setFileItemFactory(FileItemFactory factory)
Sets the factory class to use when creating file items.

Parameters:
factory - The factory class for new file items.

getSizeMax

public long getSizeMax()
Returns the maximum allowed upload size.

Returns:
The maximum allowed size, in bytes.
See Also:
setSizeMax(long)

setSizeMax

public void setSizeMax(long sizeMax)
Sets the maximum allowed upload size. If negative, there is no maximum.

Parameters:
sizeMax - The maximum allowed size, in bytes, or -1 for no maximum.
See Also:
getSizeMax()

getHeaderEncoding

public java.lang.String getHeaderEncoding()
Retrieves the character encoding used when reading the headers of an individual part. When not specified, or null, the platform default encoding is used.

Returns:
The encoding used to read part headers.

setHeaderEncoding

public void setHeaderEncoding(java.lang.String encoding)
Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of individual parts. When not specified, or null, the platform default encoding is used.

Parameters:
encoding - The encoding used to read part headers.

parseRequest

public java.util.List parseRequest(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
                            throws FileUploadException
Processes an RFC 1867 compliant multipart/form-data stream. If files are stored on disk, the path is given by getRepository().

Parameters:
req - The servlet request to be parsed.
Returns:
A list of FileItem instances parsed from the request, in the order that they were transmitted.
Throws:
FileUploadException - if there are problems reading/parsing the request or storing files.

getFileName

protected java.lang.String getFileName(java.util.Map headers)
Retrieves the file name from the Content-disposition header.

Parameters:
headers - A Map containing the HTTP request headers.
Returns:
The file name for the current encapsulation.

getFieldName

protected java.lang.String getFieldName(java.util.Map headers)
Retrieves the field name from the Content-disposition header.

Parameters:
headers - A Map containing the HTTP request headers.

The field name for the current encapsulation.

createItem

protected FileItem createItem(java.util.Map headers,
                              boolean isFormField)
                       throws FileUploadException
Creates a new FileItem instance.

Parameters:
headers - A Map containing the HTTP request headers.
isFormField - Whether or not this item is a form field, as opposed to a file.
Returns:
A newly created FileItem instance.
Throws:
FileUploadException - if an error occurs.

parseHeaders

protected java.util.Map parseHeaders(java.lang.String headerPart)

Parses the header-part and returns as key/value pairs.

If there are multiple headers of the same names, the name will map to a comma-separated list containing the values.

Parameters:
headerPart - The header-part of the current encapsulation.
Returns:
A Map containing the parsed HTTP request headers.

getHeader

protected final java.lang.String getHeader(java.util.Map headers,
                                           java.lang.String name)
