hi jake,

thanks for your replies.
in my case i have jsp-page with a form. the user should have the
possibility to select a file. i used the <input type="file"
name="test"> directive from html.
after the user selected a file, he clicks a button. by clicking this
button the binary data of the selected file should be read and saved
in a blob in the GAE storage.
afterwards i'll give the user the possibility to open the uploaded
file by clicking a link...

therefore, should i use this gaevfs or not?

up to now my major problem is, how can i get the binary data from the
form in my servlet class where i handle the form actions? i got all
other informations by HttpServletRequest.getParameter("test");

greatz and hoping for some help ;-)
flo
