[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBSEAM-1234) FileUploadTag shouldn't require file contents loaded in memory

FileUploadTag shouldn't require file contents loaded in memory -------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-1234 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1234 Project: JBoss Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: JSF Affects Versions: 1.2.1.GA Environment: any Reporter: Stuart Robertson Assigned To: Shane Bryzak The FileUploadTag seems to only support passing the uploaded data as a String or byte []. However the MultipartRequest itself supports capturing the data as a tmp file. For upload-intensive applications this could well be an issue as referencing the full file contents in memory could be resource intensive. What I would like is a way to have the upload tag pass a reference to either the tmpfile itself (preferred) or an InputStream to the contents (which users could use to create their own tmp file).
