victormejia Posts: 40	Posted 15:27 Oct 14, 2010 \| I'm a little confused as to how to combine the code in the FileUploadHandler.java and the write() method in the File CSNS class. Once I get the FileItem, am I supposed to feed in the item.getInputStream() to the write() method in the File class? Also, I am using baseDir to store the full pathname of the file. Should I use it to just store the parent folder name? Regarding getDiskFile(), why always return a new instance of a java.io.File? any help is appreciated
