| <h1>Proposal for <em>FileUpload</em> Package</h1> |
| </div> |
| |
| <h3>(0) Rationale</h3> |
| |
| <p>The javax.servlet package lacks support for rfc 1867, html file upload. |
| This package provides a simple to use api for working with such data. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <h3>(1) Scope of the Package</h3> |
| |
| <p>This proposal is to create a package of Java utility classes to read |
| multipart/form-data within a javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3>(1.5) Interaction With Other Packages</h3> |
| |
| <p><em>FileUpload</em> relies on standard JDK 1.2 (or later), |
| Servlet 2.1 (or later), and the JavaBeans Activation Framework APIs |
| for production deployment. It will utilize |
| the JUnit unit testing framework for developing and executing unit tests, but |
| this is of interest only to developers of the component.</p> |
| |
| <p>No external configuration files are utilized.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3>(2) Initial Source of the Package</h3> |
| |
| <p>The initial classes came from Turbine.</p> |
| |
| <p>The proposed package name for the new component is |
| <code>org.apache.commons.fileupload</code>.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3>(3) Required Jakarta-Commons Resources</h3> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>CVS Repository - New directory <code>fileupload</code> in the |
| <code>jakarta-commons</code> CVS repository.</li> |
| <li>Mailing List - Discussions will take place on the general |
| <em>commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org</em> mailing list. To help |
| list subscribers identify messages of interest, it is suggested that |
| the message subject of messages about this component be prefixed with |
| [FileUpload].</li> |
| <li>Bugzilla - New component "FileUpload" under the "Commons" product |
| category, with appropriate version identifiers as needed.</li> |
| <li>Jyve FAQ - New category "commons-fileupload" (when available).</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| |
| <h3>(4) Initial Committers</h3> |
| |
| <p>The initial committers on the FileUpload component shall be as follows: |
| <ul> |
| <li>John McNally (jmcnally)</li> |
| <li>Daniel Rall (dlr)</li> |
| <li>Jason van Zyl (jvanzyl)</li> |
| <!-- Add your real name and user name here --> |
| </ul> |
