Hi,

I have created a RESTful web service that processes a multipart request from an iPhone app, which includes an image and some text. I can extract my payload using getParameter and getUploadedFile.

I can return a response containing an image. The only way I could get it to work was using WStreamResource. This is what I do to return the image (the image file name is in picker*->fileName*.c_str(). My resource class has a parent of WStreamResource

// load image into stream
std::ifstream outImage(picker*->fileName*.c_str(), std::ios::in | std::ios::binary);

// stream response
handleRequestPiecewise(request, response, outImage);

Earlier attempts used WResource but streaming the image file to response.out() didn't seem to work, i.e. the entire file didn't seem to be getting sent in the response.

I would now like the response to be multipart and return, not just the image, but some text as well. How can I load up the multipart response?

regards,
Gordon
