    - jmmOnlyMimeMatch — jmimemagic, only try to get mime type, no submatches are processed when true, (false by default)
    Added new error message: uploader.errorMimeTypePatternMismatch=Invalid file type (${file.path})

Added RSS feed for jumploader news page, older versions available for download, more translations added (danish, dutch).

23.dec.2008

Version 2.9.1 released:

  • Bugfix: fixed add/remove files to/from upload queue bugs.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<iptc>
  <tag type="0x020a" name="Urgency" desc="abc"/>
  <tag type="0x027a" name="Writer/Editor" desc="jmaster"/>
...
</iptc>

13.nov.2008

Version 2.8.12 released:

  • Bugfix: upload throughput improved.
  • Feature: core jar available for download. Ripped local file system browse components, image processing components. Check core JAR demo. Don't forget to turn off thumbnail generation: vc_useThumbs=false.
  • Feature: upload scaled images without zipping, i.e. multiple files in single request. File parameter names match scaled instance names. Original file name posted with "fileName" variable. Use uc_uploadScaledImagesNoZip=true parameter value.
  • Bugfix: compact progress bar paint error when rendering "server processing" status.
  • Rip: Jazzlib zip utility (added on 2.8.10) ripped because non-ASCII characters filename problem still persists.

20.oct.2008

Version 2.8.11 released:

  • Feature: custom look and feel class name specification for ViewConfig.lookAndFeel. For example, new "Nimbus" look and feel available with Java 6u10 — just put "com.sun.java.swing.plaf.nimbus.NimbusLookAndFeel" value.
  • Feature: added few more internationalization strings (see Internationalization)
  • Feature: custom text and icon for start/stop upload buttons, see applet with custom start/stop buttons demo page.
  • Bugfix: cleanup temp files on applet stop. Although jumploader invokes File.deleteOnExit() for every temp file it creates, files are not deleted when applet/JVM quit. This seems to be Java Plugin bug (http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2589586).
  • Feature: send relative path of file, when user added directory in exploded mode (i.e. all files added to queue recursively, not zipping entire folder). For example, if adding directory c:/temp/d with files f1, f2, then file "relativePath" attribute values will be "d/f1" and "d/f2" correspondingly. Control parameter is UploaderConfig.preserveRelativePath, if this set to "true" ("false" by default), relative path will be set as file attribute named "relativePath", attribute will be sent to server.
  • Feature: paste action available through "Paste" menu or keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+V) for upload file list to add files from clipboard to upload queue.

26.sep.2008

Version 2.8.10 released:

  • Feature: additional flag IUploadFile.isServerProcessing() — indicates that all the content has been sent to server, but server not yet issued response. Please note, this is not additional status (such as READY or UPLOADING), but flag, that is meaningful only when status is UPLOADING and become true only when last partition data sent and server not yet responded.
  • Feature: GUI displays "moving stipes" progress bar when IUploadFile.isServerProcessing() is true.
  • Feature: ability to set system parameters.
  • Feature: due to character set bug in a java zip util created zip file names (if using directory zipping feature) may become unreadable, if using non ASCII characters. Therefore jumploader may utilize jazzlib implementation to create zip using custom character set for filename encoding. Read more here.

    */
    public String retryFileUploadAt( int index );

  • Feature: ability to load GUI images from URLs (HTTP).
    Example below loads custom images for start/stop upload button:

    <param name="vc_guiProperties" value="

25.apr.2008

Version 2.8.1 released, contains improvements:

  • Upload speed limit bug fixed (uc_maxTransferRate parameter).

23.apr.2008

Version 2.8.0 released, contains improvements:

  • Parameter uc_fileNamePolicy deprecated — applet will always send file name (as generic browser do).
  • Added uc_sendFilePath (true/false, false by default) — if true, applet will POST file path using parameter filePath.
  • Added access to HTTP response headers returned to upload request. Header fields stored in a IAttributeSet and should be accessed using IUploadFile.getResponseHeaders() method.
  • Added parameter uc_maxTransferRate — if positive number, upload speed will be limited to specified value (bytes/sec).
  • Implemented workaround for setting/getting attributes problem with Safari browser. It seems to be liveconnect bug — attribute values declared as java.lang.Object type, i.e. this could be any java object (incl. String), but method always received null values. Thus, it is recommended to use following methods for attribute access:
    - IAttributeSet : IAttribute createStringAttribute( String name, String value )
    - IAttributeSet : IAttribute setStringAttribute( String name, String value )
    - IAttribute : String getStringValue()
    - IAttribute : void setStringValue( String value )
  • Added parameter uc_userAgent — on applet init this will be initialized with browser's user agent.
  • Fixed upload issue with Opera browser.
  • Added scaled images upload demo page.
  • Added IUploadFile.setLength( long length ) method to set estimated length of the file. This feature could be useful to make upload progress adequate, when uploading scaled images. Check scaled images upload demo page.

14.apr.2008

Version 2.79 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed uc_fileNamePolicy=path bug — applet sent file name instead of path.
  • Added compression ratio indicator for files and folders zipped for upload. Compression ratio = [compressed file length] / [original file length] * 100.0%.
  • Zipped uploads demo page added.

03.apr.2008

Added ASP.NET upload handler.

26.mar.2008

Version 2.78 released, contains improvements:

23.mar.2008

Version 2.77 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed vc_fileListViewLocationBarVisible parameter bug (was ignored).
  • Fixed image loading/transforming bug — ORIENTATION tag in EXIF metadata was ignored when loading/transforming image.

21.mar.2008

Version 2.76 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed image resize bug: portrait oriented images was not properly scaled to fit target box.
  • Modified cross session resume feature — before response content expected as single line ({fileId},{partitionIndex}), now this could be arbitrary content with known tokens.

06.mar.2008

Version 2.75 released, contains improvements:

22.feb.2008

Version 2.7 released, contains improvements:

  • Added compact view option — to display small items for file lists.Use "_compact" value for ViewConfig.uploadListViewName parameter. It is recommended to set ViewConfig.useThumbs=false if using compact view to prevent thumbnail generation in background. See compact demo.
  • Added ID assignment method for upload file, use IFile.setId( String id ).
  • Added option to send file last modified timestamp to server, use UploaderConfig.sendFileLastModified=true parameter value (false by default). File timestamp POSTed in "lastModified" parameter using "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ" pattern, sample value: 2008-02-21T18:31:27.992+0200.

31.jan.2008

Version 2.68 released, contains improvements:

  • Added boolean option UploaderConfig.urlEncodeParameters — shows whether POSTed parameters sent to server should be urlencoded (false by default).
  • Added parameter ViewConfig.fileNamePattern — allowed file name regex pattern to display in a file tree/list (not applied to folders), null (by default) for all files.

19.jan.2008

Version 2.67 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed bug that cause jumploader crash on systems with turkish (and probably some other) regional settings.

18.jan.2008

Version 2.66 released, contains improvements:

  • Added UploaderConfig.stretchImages parameter — if true, original image will be stretched if smaller than specified size, if false (by default) will not be scaled. This parameter is valid if UploaderConfig.uploadScaledImages parameter is true.
  • Partition MD5 bug fixed.

10.jan.2008

Version 2.65 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed IUploadFile.getResponseContent() bug — was always null.
  • Fixed UploaderConfig.fileNamePolicy=path bug - adding to request body filename="c:\myfile.txt" is not legal due to invalid characters (:, \), so filename send is url-encoded. Thus, special and international characters should be properly send, server scripts should use url decode.
  • Fixed image check bug — if UploaderConfig.addImagesOnly flag set, image checking performed by loading whole image into memory, which caused low performance and OutOfMemory error for large images.
  • Added new parameter — UploaderConfig.uploadOriginalImage: shows whether original image should be uploaded along with scaled images, valid only if uploadScaledImages=true

06.jan.2008

Version 2.6 released, contains improvements:

  • Updated messages.properties (contains all strings to translate)
  • Added feature to send MD5 checksum for each partition being uploaded. This could be useful to detect upload error for particular partition, rather than whole file. Request parameter name is "partitionMd5". See UploaderConfig.usePartitionMd5 param.
  • Added ViewConfig.useThumbs flag to enable/disable thumbnails on file and upload lists.

23.nov.2007

Version 2.5 released, contains improvements:

  • Fixed applet/browser hanging issue on applet reload.
  • Added access to server response content: IUploadFile.getResponseContent()
  • Added image editor component — it is possible to transform image in upload queue. It is necessary to explicitly enable image editor using UploaderConfig.imageEditorEnabled parameter (default is false).Please note, that original image file is never altered — instead transformation result saved to temporary file before send to server. Filters include:
    • scale,
    • crop,
    • rotate,
    • brightness/contrast,
    • blur,
    • sepia,
    • grayscale.
  • Added "autoscale before upload" feature — each image being uploaded is automatically scaled to specified dimension(s) using specified parameters. Parameters container is UploaderConfig:
    • uploadScaledImages
      shows whether scaled images should be uploaded. If true, uploaded file would be ZIP archive where entries are scaled images of original, entry count and names will match scaled instance names. ZIP file name is original file name + ".zip"
    • scaledInstanceNames
      scaled instance names (comma separated, e.g. "small,medium,large")
    • scaledInstanceDimensions
      scaled instance dimensions (comma separated, for example "100x100,200x200,400x400")
    • scaledInstanceQualityFactors
      scaled instance quality factors (0-worse quality, 1000-best), (comma spearated, fo example, "900,800,700"

21.apr.2007

  • Local file tree multiple files drag'n'drop bug (unexpected 'Duplicate file' error message) fixed.
  • Added "refresh" feature for local file tree (use F5 or context menu).

14.feb.2007

Version 1.01 released, major bug fixed: uploader doesn't send URL query (parameters).

Upcoming version 1.1 will contain "partitioned upload" feature — uploading one file using several requests, transferring limited amount of data in each. This could be very useful features, since most hosting poviders limit maximum allowed POST length to several megabytes (1-3).
