Hello Pierre,
I'm sorry for the delay of my answer...
in your case, there is no need of using the fileupload extension,
especially because the request is not a correctly formatted multipart
request (the Restlet framework does not support the generation of such
requests), and could be misunderstood by a server.
If you intend to write the posted entity as a file, just proceed as follow:
@Post
public void upload(Representation entity) throws ResourceException {
try {
entity.write(new FileOutputStream(new
File("/tmp/myfile.zip")));
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new ResourceException(e);
}
}
In addition, you can "enrich" the posted entity with the
"content-disposition" header as follow:
Representation rep = new FileRepresentation(myzipfile,
MediaType.APPLICATION_ZIP);
// Prepare the disposition header with the file name.
Form form = new Form();
form.add(Disposition.NAME_FILENAME, myzipfile.getName());
rep.setDisposition(new Disposition(Disposition.TYPE_INLINE, form));
filesResources.upload(rep);
And on the server side:
entity.write(new FileOutputStream(new File("/tmp/" +
entity.getDisposition().getFileName())));
Of course, you can also test the MediaType of the incoming entity and
make the distinction between entities sent as in a multipart request
(with clients that support multipart requests), or entity simply posted.
