Radupload temporary save

[xyz]

Hi,
I am using RadUpload for the first time. I want users to browse a file and click upload button. when the user clicks on upload button it should temporarily save that file in an array or a collection. After the user has uploaded all the files then he clicks on save button where it actually saves the all the uploaded files at once in a folder adn also in the database. Can anyone help me how to do this?
Thank you

Yes. I created a static arraylist and added the files as the user hits the upload button. when the user clicked on final save button, i got the list from arraylist and saved in the database.

for(radupload upload in arraylist) -- used this to get the filename and the file.

i donno whether this is the best way to do or not but i have solved my issue

Thank you.

It's not scalable if the files are large, you are going to run out of memory saving the actual file content to arraylist.

What would be a better solution to this then? We would like to allow the user to crop the uploaded image first before saving to the dataqbase, what is the best way to do this? To use Inputstream to display the preview image? or Better to save to a temporary location as file?
Any help would be appreciated
