Set TargetFolder

[Paul]

Is it possible to set the TargetFolder property in the UploadHandler on the server side?

Thanks,
Paul.

Hi Paul,

Yes, this is possible. The RadUploadHandler has virtual properties TargetFolder and TargetPhysicalFolder which you can override and set on the server side.

Where exactly can I set TargetFolder on the server side? I have had to override the GetTargetFolder method and set my folder here, however this seems to be called every time a chunk of data is posted, I want to set the target folder only once i.e. when the first chunk of data is transferred.

Thanks,
Paul.

Hello Paul,

 You just have to override the TargetFolder (or TargetPhysicalFolder) in the UploadHandler class in your web project like so:

namespace UploadHandler.Web
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for UploadHandler
    /// </summary>
    public class UploadHandler : RadUploadHandler
    {

        public override string TargetFolder
        {
            get
            {
                return base.TargetFolder;
            }
            set
            {
                base.TargetFolder = value;
            }
        }


    }
}

Then you can change the setter and getter as you want. Let us know if you need further assistance.
