Re: Multipart form decode

[David Bovill via use-livecode]

Yes - I need a (standard) decoder. As far as I can tell we have a few
handlers in Livecode for encoding data for multipart form encoding - then
the Livecode server will do its magic and parse that making the rules
available - however there is no function to do the rfc7578
 decoding - at least that is
documented. We need this if we are coding our own server using the built in
sockets handling. I have a couple of hacks to extract uploaded images or
other files - but nothing robust or a general parser.

David: do you need a special decoder? 

I thought the multipart form handlers just broke up the sent data into 
user-defined small chunks, and the server was responsible for waiting for all 
the parts to be received and then re-assembling the data. From that point it is 
just a normal POST.

Maybe I have misunderstood the question?

Hmm writing my own generic multipart form data parser seems quite a task
(and a security risk). Any suggestions?

Multipart form decode

[David Bovill via use-livecode]

I see in the dictionary several functions related to multipart form
encoding - but not decoding. Does anyone have a function that lets my
decode form posts to the built in HTTP server.
