Summary of three methods of Servlet implementing file upload

1. Get the uploaded file through getInputStream().

2. Get uploaded files through getPart() and getParts().

Body format:

POST  HTTP/1.1  
Content-Type:multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundaryrGKCBY7qhFd3TrwA  
 
------WebKitFormBoundaryrGKCBY7qhFd3TrwA  
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="text"  
 
title  
------WebKitFormBoundaryrGKCBY7qhFd3TrwA  
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename=""  
Content-Type: image/png  
 
PNG ... content of  ...  
------WebKitFormBoundaryrGKCBY7qhFd3TrwA--

3. Another simpler method: use part wire (String fileName) to upload, and the browser will generate a temporary TMP file.

/**

 * and open the template in the editor. 
 */ 
package ; 
 
import ;

/**
  *Upload with part of the wire (String fileName), the browser will generate a temporary TMP file. 
  * @author Barudisshu
  */ 
@MultipartConfig(location = "e:/workspace") 
@WebServlet(name = "UploadServlet", urlPatterns = {"/UploadServlet"}) 
public class UploadServlet extends HttpServlet { 
 
  /** 
   * Processes requests for both HTTP 
   * <code>GET</code> and 
   * <code>POST</code> methods. 
   * 
   * @param request servlet request 
   * @param response servlet response 
   * @throws ServletException if a servlet-specific error occurs 
   * @throws IOException if an I/O error occurs 
   */ 
  protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) 
      throws ServletException, IOException { 
    //Process Chinese file names    ("UTF-8"); 
    Part part = ("photo"); 
    String fileName = getFileName(part); 
    //Write the file to the directory specified by location    (fileName); 
  } 
 
  private String getFileName(Part part) { 
    String header = ("Content-Disposition"); 
    String fileName = (("filename=\"") + 10, ("\"")); 
    return fileName; 
  } 
 
  // <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="HttpServlet methods. Click on the + sign on the left to edit the code."> 
  /** 
   * Handles the HTTP

   * @throws IOException if an I/O error occurs 
   */ 
  @Override 
  protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) 
      throws ServletException, IOException { 
    processRequest(request, response); 
  } 
 
  /** 
   * Handles the HTTP 
   * <code>POST</code> method. 
   *

  @Override 
  protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) 
      throws ServletException, IOException { 
    processRequest(request, response); 
  } 
 
  /** 
   * Returns a short description of the servlet. 
   * 
   * @return a String containing servlet description 
   */ 
  @Override 
  public String getServletInfo() { 
    return "Short description"; 
  }// </editor-fold>
