The default implementation of the FileItem interface.

After retrieving an instance of this class from a DiskFileItemFactory instance (see ServletFileUpload.parseRequest(HttpServletRequest)), you may either request all contents of file at once using get() or request an InputStream with getInputStream() and process the file without attempting to load it into memory, which may come handy with large files.

Temporary files, which are created for file items, should be deleted later on. The best way to do this is using a FileCleaningTracker, which you can set on the DiskFileItemFactory. However, if you do use such a tracker, then you must consider the following: Temporary files are automatically deleted as soon as they are no longer needed. (More precisely, when the corresponding instance of File is garbage collected.) This is done by the so-called reaper thread, which is started and stopped automatically by the FileCleaningTracker when there are files to be tracked. It might make sense to terminate that thread, for example, if your web application ends. See the section on "Resource cleanup" in the users guide of commons-fileupload.

A convenience method to write an uploaded item to disk. The client code is not concerned with whether or not the item is stored in memory, or on disk in a temporary location. They just want to write the uploaded item to a file.

This implementation first attempts to rename the uploaded item to the specified destination file, if the item was originally written to disk. Otherwise, the data will be copied to the specified file.

This method is only guaranteed to work once, the first time it is invoked for a particular item. This is because, in the event that the method renames a temporary file, that file will no longer be available to copy or rename again at a later time.

Params:
  • file – The File into which the uploaded item should be stored.
