Uploading from filexplorer to sql database

[fred williams]

Is this possible? If so can someone point me to an example? thanks.

edit: I've seen the demos to populate the file exlporer with database values, but all I want to do is be able to upload to a database. The file explorer would populate with values from a filesystem.

Hello Fred,

In your case you can subclass the RadFileExplorer's default provider (Telerik.Web.UI.Widgets.FileSystemContentProvider) and override its StoreFile method:

public override string StoreFile(UI.UploadedFile file, string path, string name, params string[] arguments)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

Then, you need to implement your logic in that method that will save the file to the database.

Best wishes,

Thanks for your reply. So all I need to do is add the code to upload to the database in the same method, after the "throw new notimplementedexpception" line?
