File Upload

[woollybarr]

Is there a file upload component for RichFaces or Ajax4JSF ? If not, what would be the best of getting one - should I create my own, or should I use a 3rd party one, has anyone any experience of a 3rd party component that works?

Thanks,

Phil.

FileUpload component from Tomahawk library works fine for me

[sergeysmirnov]

Ajax4jsf and Richfaces has been designed to work together with other 3d party library. So, repeating components after all existing component libraries is not necessarily. As I know, FileUpload from Tomahawk and FileUpload from JBoss Seam are used often.

I think RichFaces should have its own file upload component. It's unreasonable to include the tomahawk.jar file in the lib folder, to add a facelet tag lib xml file to the application in order to use just the tomahawk file upload component :(

I'm still looking for a decent calendar component (because the tomahawk calendar displays dates wrong, the jenia4faces causes me some problems that I don't know how to solve). If I find one, then I have to include one more jar file, one more facelet tag lib xml file to use only the calendar component :((

What special features this component should have?

I don't see a problem!
I'm using myfaces, richfaces&ajax4jsf and jenia in my webapp. New libary and new filter is quickly included and all the components are working good together.

But, back to topic:
I'm also using <t:inputFileUpload> from myfaces. They have a problem with the accept-attribute (you can specify a filter-string for the accepted mime-types), but you can do this in action-method of your code by yourself.
Otherwise the component functions quite well.

Could you please email me a working example of the combination (rich + a4j + jenia + myfaces)? Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but I do not have an example.
All this component-libaries are together in my big webapp.

It's alright, but ... could you send me the part of the web.xml file related to jenia, facelet tab lib xml file for jenia, a jsp/xhtml file containing a jenia calendar? I hope I don't ask for a lot :)
