I need to make a file upload function in JSF 2 so I was searching about it and found it is possible to do with Tomahawk, which I think is not very stable with JSF 2. I'm using RichFaces, so I look for it and found this which I think more simple, but I'm using richfaces 4.

So I wonder if there's a way to do this with richfaces 4 or do this with JSF 2 only.

Any idea, suggestion ?

You're looking at RichFaces 3.3.x demo site. You need to look at RichFaces 4.x demo site. The <rich:fileUpload> demo page contains a concrete example with source code.

To do it with pure JSF2, you'd need to create a custom component and parse the multipart/form-data requests yourself. There's a blog about this with complete and concrete examples: Uploading files with JSF 2.0 and Servlet 3.0.

Using Tomahawk is only more easy. I'm not sure why you think that it's not very stable.

Hello my friend, sorry I think I made a misunderstanding about Tomahawk. At the end I prefer to use richfaces, which I was using already in my project =) . Thanks.

My real name is Bauke. See also my SO user profile and several other places which I linked (in)directly in my SO user profile, such as my blog, Careers profile, Linkedin profile, etc. On the "frontpage" of my blog you can find a little history of the nickname "BalusC".
Nice to meet you my friend, Bauke. =)
