[jira] Created: (HTTPCLIENT-1014) ByteArrayBody as an alternative to InputStreamBody

[Axel Fontaine (JIRA)]

ByteArrayBody as an alternative to InputStreamBody
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1014
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1014
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.1 Alpha2
            Reporter: Axel Fontaine


InputStreamBody can not determine the content length, which in turn causes 
requests to be sent with a content length of 0, even though the content is 
there. .NET Servers have trouble dealing with this.

ByteArrayBody provides an alternative that alliviates this limitation.

import java.io.OutputStream;

import org.apache.http.entity.mime.content.AbstractContentBody;

/**
 * Body part that is built using a byte array containing a file.

public class ByteArrayBody extends AbstractContentBody {
    /**
     * The contents of the file contained in this part.
     */
    private byte[] data;

    /**
     * The name of the file contained in this part.
     */
    private String filename;
    
    /**

    public ByteArrayBody(final byte[] data, final String mimeType, final String 
filename) {
        super(mimeType);
        if (data == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("byte[] may not be null");
        }
        this.data = data;
        this.filename = filename;
    }

    /**

    public ByteArrayBody(final byte[] data, final String filename) {
        this(data, "application/octet-stream", filename);
    }

    @Override
    public String getFilename() {
        return filename;
    }

    @Override
    public void writeTo(OutputStream out) throws IOException {
        out.write(data);
    }

    @Override
    public String getCharset() {
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public String getTransferEncoding() {
        return MIME.ENC_BINARY;
    }

    @Override
    public long getContentLength() {
        return data.length;
    }
}
