Saving uploaded file in specific location

Question

I have the following code which handles files upload on the server. But how to save the file to a specific location on the server

import gwtupload.server         


        

Answer 1

You should use File#createTempFile() which takes a directory instead.

File file = File.createTempFile("upload-", ".bin", new File("/path/to/your/uploads"));
item.write(file);

Or if you actually want to move the temp file to another location afterwards, use File#renameTo().

File destination = new File("/path/to/your/uploads", file.getName());
file.renameTo(destination);
