Hi,

I dont think their is any property to restrict the file upload to show only .xml files using webdynpro FileUpload UI element.

What you can do is at the server side once the upload is done, based on the mime-types you can respond back to the user that only .xml files are supported for uploads.

Thanks a lot ....

I have a doubt:

Is this applies to file upload too ?

Hi,

I have mentioned for the file upload only.

In case of file download you always know what client should be allowed. before setting the resource check the mime-type.

Hi,

Try this solution

IPrivateUserDataView.IUploadFileInformationElement element = wdContext.currentUploadFileInformationElement();

if (element.getFileResource() != null)

{

IWDResource resource = element.getFileResource();

if (resource.getResourceType().getFileExtension().equals("xls"))

//Put your condition here

{

//allowed operations

}
