Upload Files to a Web Server - Simplest Example

See more Upload Examples

This is the simplest example for uploading some files to a web server. the BlockingUpload call is synchronous and returns when the upload is finished (or failed).

A server-side C# example showing how to receive an upload is located at C# ASP.NET Code to Receive Upload

Java

import com.chilkatsoft.*;

public class ChilkatExample {

  static {
    try {
        System.loadLibrary("chilkat");
    } catch (UnsatisfiedLinkError e) {
      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }
  }

  public static void main(String argv[])
  {
    boolean success = false;

    CkUpload upload = new CkUpload();

    // Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
    // that will receive and process the HTTP Upload.
    upload.put_Hostname("www.mywebserver.com");
    upload.put_Path("/receiveUpload.aspx");

    // Add one or more files to be uploaded.
    upload.AddFileReference("file1","dude.gif");
    upload.AddFileReference("file2","swordfish.xml");
    upload.AddFileReference("file3","sample.doc");

    // Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
    // is completed.
    // This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
    // which is demonstrated in another example.
    success = upload.BlockingUpload();
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println(upload.lastErrorText());
        }
    else {
        System.out.println("Files uploaded!");
        }
  }
}
