The Jakarta Commons team is glad to announce the availability of commons-fileupload 1.2. Commons Fileupload is a framework for handling HTTP file upload requests in servlets, portlets, and similar server side Java applications.

Compared to the previous version 1.1.1, the following notable changes have been made:

• A streaming API has been added. The streaming API allows to handle arbitrarily large files without intermediary files while still keeping an extremely low memory profile.
• The presence of a content-length header is no longer required.
• Added support for progress listeners.
• Added support for header continuation lines.
• Added support for limiting the actual file size, as opposed to the request size.

Commons Fileupload 1.2 is available from
