public interface MultipartResolver
A strategy interface for multipart file upload resolution in accordance with RFC 1867. Implementations are typically usable both within an application context and standalone.
There is only one concrete implementation included in Spring, as of Spring 2.1:
CommonsMultipartResolver
for Jakarta Commons FileUpload
There is no default resolver implementation used for Spring
DispatcherServlets
,
as an application might choose to parse its multipart requests itself. To define
an implementation, create a bean with the id "multipartResolver" in a
DispatcherServlet's
application context. Such a resolver gets applied to all requests handled
by that DispatcherServlet
.
If a DispatcherServlet
detects
a multipart request, it will resolve it via the configured
MultipartResolver
and pass on a
wrapped HttpServletRequest
.
Controllers can then cast their given request to the
MultipartHttpServletRequest
interface, which permits access to any
MultipartFiles
.
Note that this cast is only supported in case of an actual multipart request.
public ModelAndView handleRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) { MultipartHttpServletRequest multipartRequest = (MultipartHttpServletRequest) request; MultipartFile multipartFile = multipartRequest.getFile("image"); ... }Instead of direct access, command or form controllers can register a
ByteArrayMultipartFileEditor
or StringMultipartFileEditor
with their data binder, to automatically apply multipart content to command
bean properties.
As an alternative to using a
MultipartResolver
with a
DispatcherServlet
,
a MultipartFilter
can be
registered in web.xml
. It will delegate to a corresponding
MultipartResolver
bean in the root
application context. This is mainly intended for applications that do not
use Spring's own web MVC framework.
Note: There is hardly ever a need to access the
MultipartResolver
itself
from application code. It will simply do its work behind the scenes,
making
MultipartHttpServletRequests
available to controllers.

void |
cleanupMultipart(MultipartHttpServletRequest request)
Cleanup any resources used for the multipart handling, like a storage for the uploaded files. |
boolean |
isMultipart(HttpServletRequest request)
Determine if the given request contains multipart content. |
MultipartHttpServletRequest |
resolveMultipart(HttpServletRequest request)
Parse the given HTTP request into multipart files and parameters, and wrap the request inside a MultipartHttpServletRequest object
that provides access to file descriptors and makes contained
parameters accessible via the standard ServletRequest methods. |

boolean isMultipart(HttpServletRequest request)
Will typically check for content type "multipart/form-data", but the actually accepted requests might depend on the capabilities of the resolver implementation.
