How Can I read a data sent to a server directly into parts if the data was sent as a gzip? Here is the basic android code that uploads the file(s) to the server
private void sendViaUrlConnection(String urlPost,
ArrayList<BasicNameValuePair> pairList, File[] sentfileList) {
HttpURLConnection connection = null;
GZIPOutputStream gz = null;
DataOutputStream outputStream = null;
OutputStream serverOutputStream = null;
try {
URL url = new URL(urlPost);
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setUseCaches(false);
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent",
"Android Multipart HTTP Client 1.0");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type",
"multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary);
connection.setRequestProperty("accept-encoding", "gzip,deflate");
connection.setRequestProperty("accept","text/html,application/xhtml"
+ "+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8");
if (isServerGzip) {
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Encoding", "gzip");
gz = new GZIPOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
serverOutputStream = gz;
} else {
outputStream = new DataOutputStream(
connection.getOutputStream());
serverOutputStream = outputStream;
}
getMultiPartData(pairList, sentfileList, serverOutputStream,
boundary);
serverResponseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
} finally {}
}
If isServerGzip is false the servlet gets the data fine but if I try to send a GZIPOutputStream then the getParts() function in the servlet returns an empty list. here is the servlet's code:
@WebServlet("/AddInfo.jsp")
@MultipartConfig()
public class AddInfo extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
Collection<Part> parts = request.getParts();
for (Part part : parts) {
// Do something with each part
}
}
}
