 Description   

Convert KNS functionality to retrieve attachments that are linked to a BO property. You probably just need to convert struts file form to spring for populateDocumentAttachment() in MaintenanceDocumentBase. A sample of the KNS functionality is at https://jira.kuali.org/browse/KULRICE-5130.

This is a good example of the functionality in KNS

Comment by Jeff Ruch [ 11/Sep/13 ]

Note there are two types of attachments (PersistableAttachment and PersistableAttachmentList).

I was working on attachments for another issue and adapted this example for an attachment maintenance document. The patch should help jumpstart this issue.

Converted all fileForm to multiPartFiles.

Comment by Jeff Ruch [ 15/Oct/13 ]

JPA breaks existing implementation (including KNS). Need to remove refreshAttachment and refreshAttachmentList from MaintenanceDocumentBase to resolve.

BO Attachments Sample

Comment by Jeff Ruch [ 19/Oct/13 ]

Sample attached. Notice that the main issue with attachments is that the multiPartFile needs to be converted into file name, content type, and byte[]. The easiest way to do this is in the BO (as you can see in the sample). Once a multiPartFile attachmentFile is set, the BO sets the relevant fields so that it can be saved in the data.

For downloads, the old KNS action used a downloadAttachment method. This method was flawed because it could not support documents with both attachments and bo attachments. In order to fix that, I overrode the downloadBOAttachment method on the maintenance document controller.
