Class AbstractFileUpload<R,I extends FileItem<I>,F extends FileItemFactory<I>>

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.fileupload2.core.AbstractFileUpload<R,I,F>
Type Parameters:
R - The request context type.
I - The FileItem type.
F - the FileItemFactory type.
Direct Known Subclasses:
JakartaServletFileUpload, JakartaServletFileUpload, JavaxPortletFileUpload, JavaxServletFileUpload
public abstract class AbstractFileUpload<R,I extends FileItem<I>,F extends FileItemFactory<I>> extends 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.

    • isMultipartContent Link icon

      public static final boolean isMultipartContent(RequestContext ctx)
      Utility method that determines whether the request contains multipart content.

      Returns:
      true if the request is multipart; false otherwise.
