Servlet技术出现以前,文件上传的编程仍然是一项很困难的任务,它涉及在服务器端解析原始的HTTP响应。为了减轻编程的痛苦,开发人员借助于商业的文件上传组件。值得庆幸的是,2003年,Apache Software Foundation发布了开源的Commons FileUpload组件,它很快成为了Java Web应用程序员的利器。
经过很多年,Servlet的设计人员才意识到文件文件上传的重要性,并终于成为Servlet 3.0的内置特性。Servlet 3.0的开发人员不再需要将Commons FileUpload组件导入到他们的项目中去。
为此,在Spring MVC中处理文件上传有两种情况:
- 在Servlet 3.0版本以下,使用Apache Commons FileUpload组件;
- 在Servlet 30.版本以上,利用Servlet 3.0及其更高版本的内置支持。
无论使用哪个版本的Servlet,都要利用相同的API来处理已经上传的文件。本篇博客将会介绍如何在需要支持文件上传的Spring MVC应用中使用Commons FileUpload和Servlet 3.0文件上传特性。
一 前端编程
为了上传文件,必须将HTML表格enctype属性值设置为multipart/form-data,像下面这样:
<form action="action" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> select a file <input type="file" name="fieldName"/> <input type="submit" value="Upload"/> </form>
表格中必须包含类型为file的一个input元素,它会显示成一个按钮,单击时,它会打开一个对话框,用来选择文件。
在HTML 5之前,如果想要上传多个文件,必须使用多个类型为file的input元素。但是在HTML 5中,通过在input元素中引入multiple属性,使得多个文件的上传变得更加简单。在HTML 5中编写以下任意一行代码,便可以生成一个按钮来选择多个文件:
<input type="file" name="fieldName" multiple/> <input type="file" name="fieldName" multiple="multiple"/> <input type="file" name="fieldName" multiple=""/>
二 MultipartFile接口
在Spring MVC中处理已经上传的文件十分容易。上传到Spring MVC应用程序中的文件会被包含在一个MultipartFile对象中。我们唯一的任务就是,用类型MultipartFile的属性编写一个domain类。
org.springframework.web.multipart.MultipartFile接口源代码如下:
