upload file to specific location.

[xren]

Hi,

I would like to upload file to a specific location. and overwrite the existing one if a file already exist with the same name.

ufs/share/image/test/

How to setup the directory dynamically and setup overwrite option before uploadFileFromBrowser()?

I tried

var opts = new UploadOptions();
opts.directory = "c:/temp";
opts.maxFileSize = "5M";

But it complains that the UploadOptions is not defined.



Thanks,

UploadOptions was introduced in V4.5. Which Ebase version are you running? Incidentally using jQuery autocomplete (previous post) is much easier with V4.5 as you don't have to set up an integration service and call it via Ajax.

Hi Jon,

I am using v4.4.2.

Can the overwrite be set somewhere

Has the pessimistic lock bug been fixed in verson 4.5?

If I install version 4.5 can my code be migrate directly without any change?

Code: Select all

Can the overwrite be set somewhere

A: No, not in V4.4. The only option is to upload and then copy or move the file to another directory.

Code: Select all

A: Yes.

Code: Select all

If I install version 4.5 can my code be migrate directly without any change? 

A: Yes, but you should test it before releasing to your production system

How about FileService.copyFile() or FIleService.moveFile()

Do they have the option of overwrite file if it already exist?

If yes how to set it?

Thanks,

I think the answer is no, but you should check the javadoc for these methods for a definitive answer. You also have FileServices.existsFile() and FileServices.deleteFile() so you should have enough to handle all scenarios.
