FYI, found a workaround for the struts/FormFile issue.
The issue(s)
a) Struts doesn't resolve the file when there is Charset information in the
Content-Type header for a multipart/form-data post.
b) Winhhtp on Vista (dll version 6) adds '; Charset=UTF-8' to the
Content-Type
The fix;
Add the text '; Charset=UTF-8' to the boundary
Example in VB6
'Construct the Multipart Message to Send
msg = ""
msg = msg & "--" & bndry & "; Charset=UTF-8" & vbCrLf
msg = msg & "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=""xmlFile"";
filename=""select.xml""" & vbCrLf
msg = msg & "Content-Type: text/xml" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf
msg = msg & xmlDocument.xml & vbCrLf
msg = msg & "--" & bndry & "; Charset=UTF-8" & "--" & vbCrLf
....
xmlhttp.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; boundary=" &
bndry & "; Charset=UTF-8"
...

Subject: FormFile is not getting populated when using winhttp on Vista
Hi There,
I'm setting the header in my VB application without charset property in the
Content type;
winhttp.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; boundary=xxx
This was using fine and the file was received by struts in the FormFile
object
But now I'm trying the same on Vista with a newer version of winhttp, I can
see in NetBeans that my content type has changed to
multipart/form-data; boundary=xxx; Charset=UTF-8
The FormFile object isn't receiving the file anymore! Probably because of
the added Charset
Is there a way in Struts to intercept and remove the Charset property or a
other way to make FormFile receive the file again?
I was thinking along the line of overriding CommonsMultipartRequestHandler
wit a controller but haven't got a clue what and how.. Also when I try to do
some of the control changes I found in the mail archive I get validation
errors (I'm using struts-config_1_2.dtd)
Kind Regards
Meindert
