I have a problem in uploading files using struts2. I have multiple file tags like
<s:file name="fileUpload_5534" multiple="multiple"/>
<s:file name="fileUpload_5585" multiple="multiple"/>
<s:file name="fileUpload_5595" multiple="multiple"/>
These file tags are created dynamically and again can have multiple files uploads as I have specified multiple="multiple"
. Can anyone suggest the solution for this kind of uploads.
You can upload multiple files from a single <s:file>
element with multiple="multiple"
like described here.
You can also upload multiple files from many <s:file>
elements (that allow a single file for each one) in the same way, handling the names of the <s:file>
s to point to a list on the Action.
Do you really want to upload a List
s of Lists
of File
s ?
If yes, I suggest you to model an object, like MyFileListObject
, containing the lists of data needed:
class MyFileListObject {
private List<File> files;
private List<String> filesContentType;
private List<String> filesFileName;
/* getters and setters */
}
and then expose a List<MyFileListObject>
through the Action.
Alternatively, you can granulate it more, defining a new object, like MyFileObject
,
class MyFileObject {
private File files;
private String filesContentType;
private String filesFileName;
/* getters and setters */
}
,listed in MyFileListObject
:
class MyFileListObject {
private List<MyFileObject> files;
/* getter and setter */
}
and then expose a List<MyFileListObject>
through the Action.
But it seems overkill to me... which kind of page should let many <input type="file"/>
upload many files each one in a single post ?
