I think it would be easier to commit a test case.
The function I posted above works when I set up a multipart request with
commons-httpclient like this:
HttpClient client = createClient();
PostMethod method = new PostMethod(createUrl("gazetteer/new"));
StringPart part = new StringPart("gazetteer", GAZ_TO_ADD);
part.setContentType("application/json");
Part[] parts = {part };
method.setRequestEntity(new MultipartRequestEntity(parts,
method.getParams()));
int status = client.executeMethod(method);
assertEquals(HttpStatus.SC_OK, status);
This will not be urlencoded. There's another way to use the
commons-httpclient api to get that.
GAZ_TO_ADD is the json string.
