Hi Geert,
I think I finally have a test that correctly sends multipart/mixed (evidently
curl reserves the < character when passing a string value!), but the request
body from the POST I get is binary: document{binary{"2d2d2d2d2d2d2.... When I
send that to the error log, though, it somehow knows to return a string (?):
--------------------------93e70dee8807c5e7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="name"; filename="test1.xml"
Content-Type: application/xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>Document 1</Document>
--------------------------93e70dee8807c5e7
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="name"; filename="test2.xml"
Content-Type: application/xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>Document 2</Document>
...
This looks nearly correct, but I'm not sure what to do with this multipart
payload now that I have it.
