public abstract class RequestMultiPartHandler
extends Object

Method Detail

handleMultiparts

public XMLFragment[] handleMultiparts(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
                               throws OGCWebServiceException

This method handles the multiparts of a ServletRequest. This method is called when the content-type:form/multipart header is set. For this method to take affect, a subclass must supply the xmlNode to which the multiparts will be appended.

Parameters:

request - the actual HttpServletRequest.

Returns:

all the XML-Representations of the incoming request including the multiparts. The xmlFragment at index 0 is the first mime-multipart, e.g. the request, and the following are the multi-part elements. These elements could be hooked into the request by calling the the getElementForId(XMLFragment, String ) method and thus receiving the element to which the multipart should be appended. If the stream didn't contain parsable data an array containing the data up-to that multipart will be returned never null.

Throws:

OGCWebServiceException - if an exception occurred while processing the mime parts.

getElementForId

public abstract Element getElementForId(XMLFragment xmlBody,
                                        String id)

Sub-classes should implement this method to supply the xml-nodes to which the multiparts will be appended.

Parameters:

xmlBody - of the request.

id - of the multipart

Returns:

the Element to which the multipart with given id will be appended.
