[Springframework-developer] REPOST: Portlet Multipart Support

[Yujin K. <net...@gm...>]

Hello spring developers,

A few weeks ago I posted a question regarding multipart support in
Portlet MVC and received no response so I am trying again.

The current version of Portlet MVC code doesn't support
multipart/file-uploading.  Looking at how MultipartResolver works in
Servlet MVC, it appears it's not too insane to port it over to Portlet
MVC but there seems to be a couple of issues.

1. The package structure in the current set up is very much servlet
centric which is understandable given that portlet api was release
much later.  But it would still be nice to be able to organize the
package structure so portlet and servlet mvc can have a parallel
structure much like the mvc codes.

2. Also commons-fileupload needs to be updated to 1.1-dev which
includes PortletFileItem which might affect the servlet multipart
support somewhat due to possible api changes.

I would be more than happy to tackle this and submit a patch for this
but I am hoping if you can comment on the above points or some
pointers on how I should structure the packages if package refactoring
is not a feasible approach (of course I am suggesting this for 1.3,
the version portlet support was promised.)

Many thanks

Yujin
