  • Look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15432024/how-to-upload-a-file-using-commons-file-upload-streaming-api/15436759#15436759 You can download the needed jar from http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-fileupload/ – rickz Mar 17 '14 at 16:06

In this servlet, we use two annotations: @WebServlet: marks this servlet so that the servlet container will load it at startup, and map it to the URL pattern /FileUploadServlet. @MultipartConfig: indicates this servlet will handle multipart request. We restrict maximum size of the upload file up to 16 MB.
