multiple file upload in grail

I am trying to copy multiple files using the request or HttpServletRequest features.

I have been able to loop through all the selected files in a controller action where I have accessed the MultipartFile object for each file - here is the action code:

request.getFileNames().each{
    request.getFiles(it).each 
    { file ->
        // loop through all files selected
    println "name: $file.name Originalfilename: $file.originalFilename contentType: $file.contentType"
        file.transferTo( new File( userDir, file))                  
    } // eo for loop
} // eo requect.getFiles().each....

I get a groovy runtime error at the transferTo line - the error message being:

Could not find matching constructor for: java.io.File(java.io.File, org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartFile)

If I comment out the transferTo line the printout line line the loop produces the correct MultipartFile information about each selected files.

See output for two files selected here:

name: file[] Originalfilename: for-sale.gif contentType: image/gif

name: file[] Originalfilename: front.gif contentType: image/gif

How can I invoke transferTo to do the copy?
