upload file into web directory

[alejandropv]

Hi, I need to upload images files, I try <s:fileUpload> component, and it works fine for me, but every example I find, saves the file to database and I need to do it into a web directory. Is this possible? Can somebody show me an example?

thanks in advance

This work for me

@Name("uploadHandler")
@Scope(ScopeType.EVENT)
public class UploadHandler {
          
     @In(value="#{facesContext}")
     FacesContext facesContext;
     
     @Logger private Log log;
     
     
     private byte[] file;      
     
     public void handleUpload() throws IOException{
          
          String path = ((ServletContext) facesContext.getExternalContext().getContext()).getRealPath("/my/files/dir");
          File f = new File(path,"myFile.txt");
          log.info(f);
          FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream(f);
          fo.write(file);
          fo.flush();
          fo.close();
     
     }

     public byte[] getFile() {
          return file;
     }

     public void setFile(byte[] file) {
          this.file = file;
     }

}

and the form

<h:form id="fooForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
        
           <s:fileUpload id="file" 
                    data="#{uploadHandler.file}"
                    accept="image/jpg"
              />
        
            <h:commandButton id="upload" value="Upload !!" 
                             action="#{uploadHandler.handleUpload}"/>                      
        
        </h:form>

But I don't recommand to use the  ....getRealPath(/my/files/dir);.... instead use a path that you configure in seam.properties.

Hi! I've tried the code suggested by Michael, same .java, same .xhtml, adding to the components.xml the following configuration

<web:multipart-filter create-temp-files="true"
        max-request-size="1000000"
        url-pattern="*.seam"/>

The file it's always uploaded correctly, but it throws a null pointer exception on the line
fo.write(file);

Maybe it'a a matter of file system permission, but I haven't found a good solution to this problem, has anyone experienced the same problem?
