I am not using common-fileupload library so do I have to write extra
piece of code to delete?

Does the (temporary!!) files get deleted automatically? I though that
we have to delete it with some additional code.
Can any one make clear on this.
Yes. On upload, the commons-fileupload library creates temporary files on
the disk which are deleted on completion of the request. I found three
mechanisms for deletion in the code - (1) file upload interceptor does an
explicit deletion of the files on the return path (after
invocation.invoke() ) (2) the DiskFileItem instances created by
commons-fileupload has a finalize method that deletes the file and (3) the
commons-fileupload DiskFileItemFactory has a reference to a reaper thread
that deletes all unreferenced files. For the last one, I couldn't find the
code, but it was written so in the comments.
