Background
I have banged my head against this for a while and not made much progress. I am generating MPEG_4 / AAC files in Android and sending them by email as .mp3 files. I know they aren't actually .mp3 files, but that allows Hotmail and Gmail to play them in Preview. They don't work on iPhone though, unless they are sent as .m4a files instead which breaks the Outlook / Gmail Preview.
So I have thought of a different approach which is to attach as a .mp3 file but have an HTML link in the email body which allows the attached file to be downloaded and specifies a .m4a file name. Gmail / Outlook users can click the attachment directly whereas iPhone users can use the HTML link.
Issue
I can send an email using JavaMail with HTML in it including a link which should be pointing at the attached file to allow download of that file by the link. Clicking on the link in Gmail (Chrome on PC) gives a 404 page and iPhone just ignores my clicking on the link.
Below is the code in which I generate a multipart message and assign a CID to the attachment which I then try to access using the link in the html part. It feels like I am close, but maybe that is an illusion. I'd be massively grateful if someone could help me fix it or save me the pain if it isn't possible.

You need to create a multipart/related and set the main text part as the first body part.
Uploading a single image seems to be no problem with retrofit 2.
However,
i cant figure out how to upload 2 images at the same time.
if followed the documentation:
http://square.github.io/retrofit/2.x/retrofit/retrofit2/http/PartMap.html
File file = new File(path, "theimage");
File file2 = new File(path2, "theimage");
RequestBody requestBody = RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("image/png"), file);
RequestBody requestBody2 = RequestBody.create(MediaType.parse("image/png"), file2);
Map<String, RequestBody> params = new HashMap<>();
params.put("image2", requestBody2 );
Call<ResponseBody> call = service.upload(requestBody, params);
call.enqueue(new Callback<ResponseBody>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Response<ResponseBody> response, Retrofit retrofit) {
Log.v("Upload", "success");
}
interface:
public interface FileUploadService {
#Multipart
#POST("/upload")
Call<ResponseBody> upload(
//#Part("image_logo\"; filename=\"image.png\" ") RequestBody file,
#Part("file") RequestBody file,
#PartMap Map<String, RequestBody> params
// #Part("description") String description
);
this gives a 'Upload: success' but on the server side i get gibberish:
CONTENT_TYPE: multipart/form-data;
boundary=50fbfeb3-3abc-4f15-b130-cdcb7e3a0e4f
CONTENT POST:Array (
[file] => �PNG IHDR L alotofbinarygibberish.... ... snip
[file2] => �PNG
IHDR L more binary gibberish...
can anyone point me in the right direction?
single upload does work so thats not the problem, i'm trying to upload 2 or more images.
if i change it to this:
HashMap<String, RequestBody> partMap = new HashMap<String, RequestBody>();
partMap.put("file\"; filename=\"" + file.getName(), requestBody);
partMap.put("file\"; filename=\"" + file2.getName(), requestBody);
Call<ResponseBody> call = service.upload(partMap);
#Multipart
#POST("/upload")
Call<ResponseBody> upload(
#PartMap() Map<String, RequestBody> partMap,
i get no gibberish but only the second image is uploaded... !?
UPDATE
i tried this Retrofit(2.0 beta2) Multipart file upload doesn't work solution but get an error that #body can not me used with multipart:
Java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: #Body parameters cannot be used with form or multi-part encoding. (parameter #1)
for (String key : keys) {
Bitmap bm = selectedImages.get(key);
File f = new File(saveToInternalStorage(bm, key), key);
if (f.exists()) {
buildernew.addFormDataPart(key, key + ".png", RequestBody.create(MEDIA_TYPE, f));
}
}
RequestBody requestBody = buildernew.build();
-
Call<ResponseBody> upload(
#Body RequestBody requestBody
This works:
final MediaType MEDIA_TYPE=MediaType.parse("image/png");
HashMap<String,RequestBody> map=new HashMap<>(selectedImages.size());
RequestBody file=null;
File f=null;
Set<String> keys = selectedImages.keySet();
for (String key : keys) {
try {
Bitmap bitmap = selectedImages.get(key);
f = new File(saveToInternalStorage(bitmap, key), key);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(f);
if(bitmap!=null){
bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 0 , fos);
fos.flush();
fos.close();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return;
}
file=RequestBody.create(MEDIA_TYPE, f);
map.put(""+key+"\"; filename=\""+key+".jpg",file);
Log.i("##MYLOG###", "### MAP PUT:" + key + " filename:"+key+".jpg file:" + file.toString() +" type:"+ file.contentType() );
file=null;
f = null;
}
--
Call<ResponseBody> upload(
#PartMap() Map<String,RequestBody> mapFileAndName //for sending multiple images

beware: while debugging this with the httpClient.interceptors() i saw only a single upload but when checking the endpoint itself to see what it actually got, it DID get the multiple uploads!
I might be late but my answer might help future visitors
I am asking user to select multiple images like this:
int PICK_IMAGE_MULTIPLE = 1;
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), PICK_IMAGE_MULTIPLE);
Then in onActivityResult() I am doing this:
ArrayList<String> filePaths;
#Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == PICK_IMAGE_MULTIPLE) {
if (data != null) {
filePaths=new ArrayList<>();
// If data.getData() == null means multiple images selected, else single image selected.
if (data.getData() == null) {
ClipData clipData = data.getClipData();
if (clipData != null) {
for (int i = 0; i < clipData.getItemCount(); i++) {
ClipData.Item item = clipData.getItemAt(i);
Uri uri = item.getUri();
filePaths.add(FileUtils.getPath(Activity.this, uri));
}
}
} else {
filePaths.add(FileUtils.getPath(Activity.this,data.getData()));
}
sendToServer();
}
}
}
You can get FileUtils class from this Github link
My sendToServer() method looks like this:
private void sendToServer() {
if(filePaths!=null) {
ApiInterface apiService = ApiClient.getClient().create(ApiInterface.class);
MediaType MEDIA_TYPE_IMG = MediaType.parse("image/jpeg");
MultipartBody.Builder builder=new MultipartBody.Builder();
builder.setType(MultipartBody.FORM);
RequestBody requestBody;
try {
for (int i = 0; i < filePaths.size(); i++) {
File file = new File(filePaths.get(i));
requestBody=RequestBody.create(MEDIA_TYPE_IMG,file);
builder.addFormDataPart("photo"+i,file.getName(),requestBody);
}
RequestBody finalRequestBody=builder.build();
Call<YourResponse> call=apiService.addEvent(finalRequestBody);
call.enqueue(new Callback<YourResponse>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<YourResponse> call, Response<YourResponse> response) {
// process response
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<YourResponse> call, Throwable t) {
t.printStackTrace();
t.getCause();
}
});
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Finally my Retrofit endpoint looks like this:
#POST("event/add")
Call<YourResponse> addEvent(#Body RequestBody body);
Note that YourResponse can be your custom model class for handling response, or you can also use raw Response class in you don't want to make your model class.
Hope this helps new visitors.
Try This
For API:
//Multiple Images
#Multipart
#POST(HttpConstants.FILEMULTIPLEUPLOAD)
Call<Result>uploadMultipleImage(#Part MultipartBody.Part files1,#Part MultipartBody.Part files2, #Query("total_images") int total, #Query("stdID") int stdID);
Client
public class RaytaServiceClass {
public RaytaServiceClass() {
}
private static Retrofit getRetroClient(){
Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
.setLenient()

return new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(HttpConstants.baseUrl)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create(gson))
.build();
}
public static RaytaApi getApiService(){
return getRetroClient().create(RaytaApi.class);
}
}
The Call
RaytaApi service= RaytaServiceClass.getApiService();
File file1 = new File(selectedPath1);

MultipartBody.Part body =
MultipartBody.Part.createFormData("uploaded_file", file1.getName(), requestFile);
MultipartBody.Part body2 =

plz somebody help... thanks in advance..
Try This link,
This code is support to upload file on Server using multi part .
it can also work on blackberry , With some modifications needed.

I need to programmatically open an Excel file that is stored in a MOSS 2007 Shared Documents List. I’d like to use an OleDbConnection so that I may return the contents of the file as a DataTable. I believe this is possile since a number of articles on the Web imply this is possible. Currently my code fails when trying to initialize a new connection (oledbConn = new OleDbConnection(_connStringName); The error message is:
Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0.
I believe I am just not able to figure the right path to the file. Here is my code:
public DataTable GetData(string fileName, string workSheetName, string filePath)
{
// filePath == C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\MySpWebAppName\Shared Documents\FY12_FHP_SPREADSHEET.xlsx
// Initialize global vars
_connStringName = DataSource.Conn_Excel(fileName, filePath).ToString();
_workSheetName = workSheetName;
dt = new DataTable();
//Create the connection object
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(_connStringName))
{
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
{
oledbConn = new OleDbConnection(_connStringName);
try
{
oledbConn.Open();
//Create OleDbCommand obj and select data from worksheet GrandTotals
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM " + _workSheetName + ";", oledbConn);
//create new OleDbDataAdapter
OleDbDataAdapter oleda = new OleDbDataAdapter();
oleda.SelectCommand = cmd;
oleda.Fill(dt);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
finally
{
oledbConn.Close();
}
});
}
return dt;
}
public static OleDbConnection Conn_Excel(string ExcelFileName, string filePath)
{
// filePath == C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\MySpWebAppName\Shared Documents\FY12_FHP_SPREADSHEET.xlsx
OleDbConnection myConn = new OleDbConnection();
myConn.ConnectionString = string.Format(#"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + filePath + ";Extended Properties=Excel 12.0");
return myConn;
}
What am I doing wrong, or is there a better way to get the Excel file contents as a DataTable?
I ended up using the open source project Excel Data Reader

If all you're getting is XML, you can use XDocument.Load(stream) to load the result to a XDocument instance
Your problem may be with the applied Encoding, and this method should solve any Encoding issue!
