PrimeFaces uses Apache Commons FileUpload under the covers for this. It will create the file as a temporary file and hence the file will already be automatically deleted if there are no open
FilenorInputStreamreferences to it when the Java Garbage Collector runs.So if you can make absolutely sure that you close the
InputStreamafter processing (in thefinallyblock!), then you don’t need to worry about cleanup.
