This example demonstrates how this works in a BBJSP servlet

class public MyServlet   field private BBjspWebRequest request!   field private BBjspWebResponse response!   field private BBjspWebSession session!      method public void service(BBjspServletContext context!)             #request! = context!.getRequest()     #response! = context!.getResponse()     resp!.setContentType("text/html")     s!.write("<html><body><h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>")     upload! = #request!.getFileUpload("thefile")     if upload! <> null() then       declare BBjFileUpload uploadFile!       uploadFile! = cast(BBjFileUpload,upload!)       s!.write("You uploaded '")       s!.write(uploadFile!.getOriginalName())       s!.write("' of type:"+ uploadFile!.getContentType())       s!.write(" and Size:")       s!.write(uploadFile!.getContentLength())       s!.write("bytes.<br>")     else       s!.write("Please upload a file<br>")       s!.write("<form id='upload' method='post' action='upload' enctype='multipart/form-data' >")       s!.write("<input id='thefile' name='thefile' type='file' /><br>")       s!.write("<input type='submit' value='submit' id='submit' />")       s!.write("</form>")     fi     s!.write("</body></html>")   methodend classend
