Thanks, got it.
Anecdotally, I had first tried to extend FileBody. The extended class
worked in production, but not in Junit test, which caught the infamous
NoClassDefFoundError error.
The winning code (in spectacular Java-Heresy(tm) style), is:
public static String postFile(String fileName, String userName,
String password, String macAddress) throws Exception {
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(SERVER + "uploadFile");
MultipartEntityBuilder builder =
MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
final File file = new File(fileName);
FileBody fb = new FileBody(file);
builder.addPart("file", fb);
builder.addTextBody("userName", userName);
builder.addTextBody("password", password);
builder.addTextBody("macAddress", macAddress);
final HttpEntity yourEntity = builder.build();
class ProgressiveEntity implements HttpEntity {
@Override
public void consumeContent() throws IOException {
yourEntity.consumeContent();
}
@Override
public InputStream getContent() throws IOException,
IllegalStateException {
return yourEntity.getContent();
}
@Override
public Header getContentEncoding() {
return yourEntity.getContentEncoding();
}
@Override
public long getContentLength() {
return yourEntity.getContentLength();
}
@Override
public Header getContentType() {
return yourEntity.getContentType();
}
@Override
public boolean isChunked() {
return yourEntity.isChunked();
}
@Override
public boolean isRepeatable() {
return yourEntity.isRepeatable();
}
@Override
public boolean isStreaming() {
return yourEntity.isStreaming();
} // CONSIDER put a _real_ delegator into here!
@Override
public void writeTo(OutputStream outstream) throws IOException {
class ProxyOutputStream extends FilterOutputStream {
/**
* @author Stephen Colebourne
*/
public ProxyOutputStream(OutputStream proxy) {
super(proxy);
}
public void write(int idx) throws IOException {
out.write(idx);
}
public void write(byte[] bts) throws IOException {
out.write(bts);
}
public void write(byte[] bts, int st, int end)
throws IOException {
// FIXME Put your progress bar stuff here!
out.write(bts, st, end);
}
public void flush() throws IOException {
out.flush();
}
public void close() throws IOException {
out.close();
}
} // CONSIDER import this class (and risk more Jar File Hell)
class ProgressiveOutputStream extends ProxyOutputStream {
public ProgressiveOutputStream(OutputStream proxy) {
super(proxy);
}
}
yourEntity.writeTo(new ProgressiveOutputStream(outstream));
}
};
ProgressiveEntity myEntity = new ProgressiveEntity();
post.setEntity(myEntity);
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
return getContent(response);
}
public static String getContent(HttpResponse response) throws IOException {
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent()));
String body = "";
String content = "";
while ((body = rd.readLine()) != null)
{
content += body + "\n";
}
return content.trim();
}
