This section presents reference information on the methods of the oracle.ord.im.OrdHttpUploadFile class.
Form-based file uploading using HTML forms encodes form data and uploaded files in POST requests using the multipart/form-data format. The OrdHttpUploadFile class is used to represent an uploaded file that has been parsed by the OrdHttpUploadFormData class (see OrdHttpUploadFormData Class for more information on the OrdHttpUploadFormData class). The OrdHttpUploadFile class provides methods to obtain information about the uploaded file, to access the contents of the file directly, and to facilitate loading the contents into an interMedia object in a database.
Every input field of type FILE in an HTML form will produce a parameter of type OrdHttpUploadFile, whether or not a user enters a valid file name into such a field. Depending on the requirements, applications can test the length of the file name, the length of the content, or both to determine if a valid file name was entered by a user and if the file was successfully uploaded by the browser. For example, if a user does not enter a file name, the getOriginalFileName( ) method will return the length of the file name as zero. However, if a user enters either an invalid file name or the name of an empty (zero-length) file, the getOriginalFileName( ) method will return the length of the file name, which will not be zero, and the getContentLength( ) method will return the content length of the file as zero.
Format
public int getContentLength( )
Description
Returns the length of the uploaded media file. If you enter an invalid file name, the name of a nonexistent file, or the name of an empty file, the length returned is zero.
Parameters
None.
Return Value
This method returns the length of the uploaded file.
Exceptions
None.
Examples
None.
Format
public java.io.InputStream getInputStream( )
Description
Returns an InputStream object that can be used to read uploaded data directly. Applications should close the stream with the close( ) method when finished.
Parameters
None.
Return Value
This method returns an InputStream object, from which to read the contents.
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException
This exception is thrown if the uploaded file is no longer available (for example: because it has been released).
java.io.IOException
This exception is thrown if an error occurs opening the temporary file.
Examples
None.
Format
public String getMimeType( )
Description
Returns the MIME type of the media file, as determined by the browser when the file is uploaded.
Some browsers return a default MIME type even if you do not supply a file name; therefore, the application should check the file name or content length to ensure the file was uploaded successfully.
Parameters
None.
Return Value
This method returns the MIME type of the file, as a String.
Exceptions
None.
Examples
None.
Format
public String getOriginalFileName( )
Description
Returns the original file name, as provided by the browser. If you do not supply a file name, an empty String is returned.
Parameters
None.
Return Value
This method returns the file name, as a String.
Exceptions
None.
Examples
None.
Format
public String getSimpleFileName( )
Description
Returns the simple file name (that is, the name of the file and the extension). If you do not supply a file name, an empty String is returned.
Parameters
None.
Return Value
This method returns the simple file name, as a String.
Exceptions
None.
Examples
None.
Format
public void loadAudio(oracle.ord.im.OrdAudio media)
Description
Loads the uploaded file into an OrdAudio Java object and sets the properties based on the audio data. This method loads the audio data into the database and calls the OrdAudio setProperties( ) method to set the properties, such as the MIME type. This method does not use any existing format plug-in context information and does not set any comments when setting the properties. To use this method, the application fetches an initialized OrdAudio object from the database, calls this method to load the audio data into the database, and then updates the OrdAudio object in the database.
If the call to the setProperties( ) method fails because the audio format is not recognized, this method sets the following properties:
MIME type (to the value specified by the browser)
update time (to the current date and time)
Parameters
An object of type oracle.ord.im.OrdAudio into which the audio data will be loaded.
Return Value
None.
Exceptions
java.io.IOException
This exception is thrown if an error occurs while reading or writing the media data.
java.sql.SQLException
This exception is thrown if an unrecognized error occurs while storing the media data.
java.lang.IllegalStateException
This exception is thrown if the uploaded file is no longer available (for example: because it has been released).
Examples
None.
Format
public void loadAudio(oracle.ord.im.OrdAudio media, byte[ ][ ] ctx, boolean setComments)
Description
Loads the uploaded file into an OrdAudio Java object and sets the properties using an application-supplied, format plug-in context. This method loads the audio data into the database and calls the OrdAudio setProperties( ) method to set the properties, such as the MIME type. The application provides the format plug-in context information and chooses whether or not to set the comments in the OrdAudio object. To use this method, the application fetches an initialized OrdAudio object from the database, calls this method to load the audio data into the database, and then updates the OrdAudio object in the database.
If the call to the setProperties( ) method fails because the audio format is not recognized, this method sets the following properties:
MIME type (to the value specified by the browser)
update time (to the current date and time)
Parameters
An object of type oracle.ord.im.OrdAudio into which the audio data will be loaded.
The format plug-in context information.
A Boolean value indicating whether or not to set the comments in the OrdAudio object.
Return Value
None.
Exceptions
java.io.IOException
This exception is thrown if an error occurs while reading or writing the media data.
java.sql.SQLException
This exception is thrown if an unrecognized error occurs while storing the media data.
java.lang.IllegalStateException
This exception is thrown if the uploaded file is no longer available (for example: because it has been released).
Examples
None.
Format
public void loadBlob(oracle.sql.BLOB blob)
Description
Loads the uploaded media file into a BLOB.
Parameters
An object of type oracle.sql.BLOB into which the data will be loaded.
Return Value
None.
Exceptions
java.io.IOException
This exception is thrown if an error occurs while reading or writing the media data.
java.sql.SQLException
This exception is thrown if an unrecognized error occurs while storing the media data.
java.lang.IllegalStateException
This exception is thrown if the uploaded file is no longer available (for example: because it has been released).
Examples
None.
Format
public void loadDoc(oracle.ord.im.OrdDoc media)
Description
Loads the uploaded file into an OrdDoc Java object and sets the properties based on the contents of the document. This method loads the document into the database and calls the OrdDoc setProperties( ) method to set the properties, such as the MIME type. This method does not use any existing format plug-in context information and does not set any comments when setting the properties. To use this method, the application fetches an initialized OrdDoc object from the database, calls this method to load the document into the database, and then updates the OrdDoc object in the database.
If the call to the setProperties( ) method fails because the document format is not recognized, this method sets the following properties:
MIME type (to the value specified by the browser)
content length (to the length of the uploaded file)
update time (to the current date and time)
Parameters
An object of type oracle.ord.im.OrdDoc into which the document will be loaded.
Return Value

Return Value
None.
Exceptions
None.
Examples
None.
