[TYPO3-mvc] Images and extbase

You're damn right about that.

There's another way though, if you use FED.

Inject Tx_Fed_Service_File and use http://fedext.net/services/file.html#autoUpload or its brother, ->getUploadedFiles(), which unlike ->autoUpload() will let you manually move/copy/check files before attaching them to your properties.

Usage would be something like:

public function updateAction($object) {
	if ($this->fileService->autoUpload($object, 'filePropertyName', '/site/relative/base/path') === FALSE) {
		throw new SuperException('These are not the uploads you are looking for', 4815162342);
	}
	… do more stuff to the object that now has files attached at the right properties.
}

Cheers,
Claus
