Does soap with attachments using MIME multipart support streaming? I have goggled around trying to find out if there is a possibility of doing that but i end up getting some old postings and documentations that suggest that SwA does not support streaming
I have also tried to simulate streaming a considerably large amount of data by sending it as a data handler and then use the streaming capability of the activation framework to stream the data into an output stream But what I got is an overhead equivalent to the time spend to transmit the whole file to the client before the streaming begins(my conclusion was that the data is received in a one-go and because of it's large size it take's the processor sometime to allocate some memory space to save it before the streaming even begins).... Does anyone have any explanation? Thanks in advance
