RichFaces4 rich:fileUpload limitations

[edilmar]

Hi,

1) At RF3.3.3, when filtering extensions by acceptedTypes, only files with these extensions were showed.

For example: acceptedTypes="jpg, gif, png"

At RF4.0.0, all kind of files are showed, but the user becomes lost because when it selected other type of file, for example, .bmp, nothing occurs, no message error, no file selected, etc.

2) I saw that properties maxFilesQuantity="1"/immediateUpload="true"/autoclear="true" don't work, like wrote in this link. Is there some plan to implement these in next 4.x versions? In my case I really need that the user selects only one file, how to disable automatically show of the next "fileUpload Add..." button?

3) At RF3.3.3 I configured portuguese text for my users in these properties. None of them works more. Also listHeight/listWidth.

addControlLabel="Selecionar Novo Arquivo..."

transferErrorLabel="Erro na transferência do arquivo!"

stopControlLabel="Parar" stopEntryControlLabel="Parar"

cancelEntryControlLabel="Cancelar"

clearControlLabel="" clearAllControlLabel="" doneLabel=""

listHeight="50px" listWidth="300px"

1) it was in flash mode. and for 4.x it's still not migrated.

2) that should be definitelly added in next versions. add your vote there http://community.jboss.org/message/600628#600628

currently could try to workaround using some event handlers(to hide the button when file added)

3) http://docs.jboss.org/richfaces/latest_4_0_X/vdldoc/ - just names changed.

3) I found some of the them, what about others?

      - addControlLabel => addLabel

      - transferErrorLabel => serverErrorLabel

      - clearControlLabel => clearLabel

      - clearAllControlLabel => clearAllLabel

      - stopControlLabel => ?

      - stopEntryControlLabel => ?

      - cancelEntryControlLabel => ?

      - listHeight => ?

      - listWidth => ?

  - cancelEntryControlLabel => deleteLabel

    - stopControlLabel => ?

    - stopEntryControlLabel => ?

stop not implemented for now. 3.3.x had major problem related to the fact that stop was really invoked only after file getting uploaded actually. So we decided to review that part.\

      - listHeight => ?

      - listWidth => ?

use rf-fu-lst CSS class for now. unfortunatelly can confirm that listClass attribute mmissed for now

Hi Ilya,

In many doubts I wrote here in forum you suggested me to use some CSS class, because there isn't a component property for this in RF4, not like RF3.3.3. But, if I need a component with a size config and other component of the same type with other size config, how could I implement this? Because defining a style CSS class is valid for all the page.

[ilya_shaikovsky]

for now considering that we missed to implement listClass or some sizes attributes you could use just CSS selector in order to apply sizes for concrete component. e.g.

<style>

     .mediumSize .rf-fu-lst{

          width: 100px;

          height:100px;

     }

</style>

..

<rich:fu styleClass="mediumSize">
