There is a pretty good information here - http://struts.apache.org/2.x/docs/file-upload.html
The internal details are relatively non-complex. The dispatcher hands file uploads off to this class - http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/struts/struts2/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/apache/struts2/dispatcher/multipart/JakartaMultiPartRequest.java?annotate=781501 If you're familiar with commons-fileupload, it's pretty straightforward. As far as using the new plugin, it's in the sandbox right now, but it's not much different than the original implementation, I just changed some things up so that other implementations can be plugged in (rather than taking the default FileItemFactory, etc.). Let me know how it works for you. -Wes On Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 6:39 AM, Daniele Development-ML<daniele....@googlemail.com> wrote: > Hello, > my process in getting to this was 1. looking for some API to stream > upload/download data directly into the HD, 2. found the Common File Upload > API, 3.
