AcceptMime.properties

Each time when you call:

• AcceptMime.getAcceptMime( )

the contents of AcceptMime.properties is loaded. The keys in this property file is the mime-types (Content-Type), and their corresponding values are yes or no. And the above method returns the Set object, which includes the mime-types whose values are yes.
You can pass this Set object to some methods of MimeParser. Then, only the files of the specific mime-types can be uploaded. In case of the invalid mime-types, MimeParser will throw InvalidContentTypeException.

For example, your JSP/Servlet may want to accept JEPG, PNG and GIF files only. In this case, your AcceptMime.properties should have the lines like:

• image/jpeg=yes
• image/pjpeg=yes
• image/png=yes
• image/gif=yes
• image/bmp=no
• application/pdf=no
• application/postscript=no

When your JSP/Servlet calls:

• AcceptMime.getAcceptMime( )

the returned Set object includes

• image/jpeg
• image/pjpeg
• image/png
• image/gif

Then, your JSP/Servlet can pass this Set object to some methods of MimeParser.
The source code of your JSP/Servlet will look like this:

  Set accept_mime=AcceptMime.getAcceptMime();

  // The uploaded file will be saved under the "foo"
  // sub-directory...
  String user="foo";

  // The maximum file size is set to
  // 30*1024 bytes (30 KB), which can
  // override the "max_file" property.
  mime.parseAndSave(request,user,30*1024,accept_mime);

Your JSP/Servlet will accept JPEG, PNG or GIF files, but will refuse other types of files.
