How to save a PDF file in mobile phone

[luigico889]

Hi.

I have a jsp file that opens a PDF file.

Code:

<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.InputStream.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.net.*" %>
<%@page contentType="application/pdf" %>

<%
OutputStream o = response.getOutputStream();
URL u = new URL("http://localhost:8080/list_0809_3rd_term.pdf");
InputStream is =
u.openStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[32 * 1024]; // 32k buffer
int nRead = 0;
while( (nRead=is.read(buf)) != -1 ) {
o.write(buf, 0, nRead);
}
o.flush();
o.close();
%>

Is there a way to get the pdf from the jsp file and save it in mobile phone probably using Http Connection??

Need help badly, thanks

Hi,
It depends on capability of web browser. If your target browser allows
to to download and save files then you can do it. There is no direct
connection between your mobile browser/client and JSP pages. JSP
pages are compiled on the server side so you don't have direct access to
them.

But arent there any other way to download a file from a local web server (localhost)? Coz we need to make a j2me midlet thats like a bookstore and downloads pdf books to a phone without viewing it. Any advice?

thanks again

Downloading file over HTTP it's easy. Look at the HTTP API and input
stream. This is one of the example but I did not check it if it works.
