I have an application that uploads a file. I need to pass this file into another program but for that I need the file name only. Is there any simple code for that, using only Java or a servlet procedure?
while (files.hasMoreElements())
{
name = (String)files.nextElement();
type = multipartRequest.getContentType(name);
filename = multipartRequest.getFilesystemName(name);
originalFilename = multipartRequest.getOriginalFileName(name);
//extract the file extension - this can be use to reject a
//undesired file extension
extension1 = filename.substring
(filename.length() - 4, filename.length());
extension2 = originalFilename.substring
(originalFilename.length() - 4, originalFilename.length());
//return a File object for the specified uploaded file
File currentFile = multipartRequest.getFile(name);
//InputStream inputStream = new BufferedInputStream
(new FileInputStream(currentFile));
if(currentFile == null) {
out.println("There is no file selected!");
return;
}
