ServerName

ServerName Property

Object: SoftArtisans.FileUp

Syntax: ServerName

Type: String

Read/Write: Read Only

Description:

This property displays the complete path and name of the uploaded file on the web server's hard disk.

Before a Save, SaveAs or SaveAsBlob is executed, the ServerName property contains the location and name of the temporary cache file used when processing uploads. After a Save, SaveAs or SaveAsBlob, ServerName displays the complete path and name of the final location of the file.

The cache filename is always guaranteed to be unique. You can use the .ServerName property to generate a unique name when saving the file. The cache file's name is of the form saNNNN.tmp, where NNNN is a unique number. See Example 2, below.

If there is more than one file being uploaded in a single page, only the first one is displayed.

To examine the Server Name of multiple files in a single upload, there is an equivalent property for each file object, i.e., fileUpload.FormEx("FILE1").ServerName. Please see SAFile.ServerName

Examples:

ASP	<% '--- Instantiate FileUp Set fileUpload = Server.CreateObject("SoftArtisans.FileUp") '--- Set cache/default save location fileUpload.Path = "C:\Temp" filename = "upload.tst" Response.Write("The uploaded file is now cached in: " & _ fileUpload.ServerName & "<br />") Response.Write("Saving the file to: " & filename & "<br />") On Error Resume Next '--- Save upload fileUpload.SaveAs filename If Err = 0 Then Response.Write("Upload saved successfully to: " & _ fileUpload.ServerName) Else '--- Handle errors End If %> ServerName will display "C:\Temp\upload.tst"
C#	`//--- Instantiate FileUp FileUp fileUpload = new FileUp(Context); //--- Set cache/default save location fileUpload.Path = @"C:\Temp"; filename = "upload.tst"; results.Append("The uploaded file is now cached in: " + fileUpload.ServerName + "<br />"); results.Append("Saving the file to: " + filename + "<br />"); //--- Save upload fileUpload.SaveAs(filename); results.Append("Upload saved successfully to: " + fileUpload.ServerName);` ServerName will display "C:\Temp\upload.tst"
VB.NET	`'--- Instantiate FileUp Dim fileUpload As New FileUp(Context) '--- Set cache/default save location fileUpload.Path = "C:\Temp" filename = "upload.tst" results.Append("The uploaded file is now cached in: " + _ fileUpload.ServerName + "<br />") results.Append("Saving the file to: " + filename + "<br />") '--- Save upload fileUpload.SaveAs(filename) results.Append("Upload saved successfully to: " + _ fileUpload.ServerName)` ServerName will display "C:\Temp\upload.tst"
