handling files to upload

[etosch]

Currently the load file button for Upload.js only uploads one file at a time. The current implementation keeps an array of chosen files, but in practice only allows one choice Update this to handle:

(1) manually entering more than one dex file sequentially. (2) entering more than one file at a time using the file selector. (If I try to load two files at once by selecting two, only the last one is parsed.) (3) uploading a directory of dex files.

Some other options to consider in the future: (4) Uploading a zipped file (5) Uploading a jar (6) Uploading only the relevant starting point and dynamically loading the necessary dependencies as we go.

If you could write/make some test cases to make sure that these options work, that would be great. Be sure to document them in the wiki.

Future options (4) and (5) would require a zip library written in Javascript. Also, people generally don't jar or zip dex files. Future option (6) would require some sort of server. Javascript is restricted from loading things from a user's computer that aren't specified through an <input type="file" />

I don't think the rest will be able to be automated tests, unfortunately; unless someone has a really scriptable browser.

(2) entering more than one file at a time using the file selector. (If I try to load two files at once by selecting two, only the last one is parsed.)

What browser are you using? I am unable to reproduce this in Firefox 15 and Chromium 20.

There is a bug in the printing of which file gets loaded, but separate, correct DexData is created for the two dex files I used. (See Issue #57 I just assigned to you).

Is this resolved along with #80?

[etosch]

Yup. closing now.
