Hello,
I have a rest webservice that takes a POST metod with multipart message:
@Path("transferFile")
@POST
@Consumes(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA)
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML)
public String multipartTest(com.sun.jersey.multipart.MultiPart data) {
try {
// get first body part (index 0)
BodyPart bp = multiPart.getBodyParts().get(0);
etc..
Now I am trying to write a java client for that. I started with a simple jersey client: view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
MultiPart multiPart = new MultiPart();
multiPart.bodyPart( new BodyPart(wavestream,MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM_TYPE));
Client c = Client.create();
WebResource r = c.resource("http://127.0.0.1:8080/webapp");
response=r.path("transferFile").type(MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA).accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_XML).post(String.class, multiPart);
This works great - everything is ok. However I need this client working on Android and I have trouble with using jersey on that platform. So I used the normal way to send multipart message on android:
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
client.getParams().setParameter("http.socket.timeout", new Integer(90000)); // 90 second
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("http://127.0.0.1:8080/webapp/transferFile");
httpPost.setHeader("Content-Type", MediaType.MULTIPART_FORM_DATA );
//tried with and without base64
byte [] encodedWavestream = Base64.encodeBytesToBytes(wavestream);
InputStream ins = new ByteArrayInputStream(encodedWavestream);
InputStreamBody body = new InputStreamBody(ins, "test" );
int send = ins.available();
MultipartEntity requestContent = new MultipartEntity(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE );
requestContent.addPart("stream", body);
httpPost.setEntity(requestContent);
HttpResponse Response = client.execute(httpPost);
An this gives an annoying response from the server :
HTTP Status 400 - Bad Request
The request sent by the client was syntactically incorrect (Bad Request).
I check the server log files but there is nothing there. So I don’t know what’s the origin of this error. I have wrote a simple html page with a post formula and ‘multipart/form-data’ content-type and it also works! An auto-generated request from soapUI also works! Why my client does not work? Can anybody help?
