Oleg:
if you fix the problem, can you send an email to me or to the mailing list please! Thanks!

Is it a requirement that Disposition Header be in ASCII?
Yep. See RFC2183 <http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2183.html> and RFC1521 <http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1521.html> for details
<quote> Current [RFC 2045] grammar restricts parameter values (and hence Content-Disposition filenames) to US-ASCII. We recognize the great desirability of allowing arbitrary character sets in filenames, but it is beyond the scope of this document to define the necessary mechanisms. We expect that the basic [RFC 1521] `value' specification will someday be amended to allow use of non-US-ASCII characters, at which time the same mechanism should be used in the Content-Disposition filename parameter.

PS: As soon as I have a breathing moment I may contribute quote-printable codec to Commons-codec, which would allow us to take care of the problem

Hi everyone,
I'm very sorry to send an email directly to all of you but I saw your emails in the MultipartPostMethod source code in HttpClient 2.0 RC2. Maybe you can or cannot answer to my question, if not, do you know a mailing list or a person how can answer to my question ??
Here's my question:
I'm using MultipartPostMethod to send a file, everything works well but when the filename contains French character like "é", the character is always converted to ?. I though it was the encoding that was setted to US-ASCII or something like that but no, the encoding is setted to ISO-8859-1. I tried all sort to method to send the file:
- set the File object - set the File object with the filename - set a FilePart - set a FilePart with a FilePartSource
Nothing works, here is a little dump of my Part:
FILE: /home/lhoule/dev/ac-httpClient-1.0/fileTest/toté.mp3 PART 0: ISO-8859-1 PART 0: binary PART 0: application/octet-stream PART 0: file PART 0: ----------------314159265358979323846
I don't know what I can do... I try to search the web for a solution or in jakarta website... Nothing... Did you ever have this kind of problem?? Or maybe I don't use the MultipartPostMethod correctly to support French character??
Any clue?
Thank you very much and sorry again to send an email directly to all of you!
Steph
