[jira] Commented: (FILEUPLOAD-131) MultipartStream always assumes transfer encoding to be BINARY

["Deven Phillips (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FILEUPLOAD-131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13008635#comment-13008635 ] 

Deven Phillips commented on FILEUPLOAD-131:
-------------------------------------------

I was just running into this problem myself today. I checked out the SVN HEAD and see that the header object is now being returned properly, but here's an idea:

When the code retrieves the InputStream for the FileItem, have it return an appropriate InputStream which is based on the content-transport-encoding. For example, if the encoding is Base64, return a Base64InputStream. That way, the implementing developer can be completely ignorant of the underlying encoding and still get valid data. We could also provide a path to access a raw InputStream for "Power Users".

> MultipartStream always assumes transfer encoding to be BINARY and does not handle 'Content-Transfer-Encoding' header at all.
