I am entirely new to android development and I have been sending a large file through httpurlconnection in android. The code i used for uploading files through httpurlconnection is
try {
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(new File(pathToOurFile));
URL url = new URL(urlServer);
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
// Allow Inputs & Outputs
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setUseCaches(false);
connection.setChunkedStreamingMode(1024)
// Enable POST method
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; boundary=" + boundary);
outputStream = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
outputStream.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
// TOKENID
String token = "anyvalye";
outputStream.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"Token\"" + lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes("Content-Length: " + token.length() + lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes(token + lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
String connstr = null;
connstr = "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"UploadFile\";filename=\""
+ pathToOurFile + "\"" + lineEnd;
outputStream.writeBytes(connstr);
outputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
TotalFileSize=bufferSize;
System.out.println("Initial Max Size" + bytesAvailable + "");
buffer = new byte[bufferSize];
// Read file
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
try {
while (bytesRead > 0) {
try {
outputStream.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
e.printStackTrace();
response = "outofmemoryerror";
return response;
}
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
response = "error";
return response;
}
outputStream.writeBytes(lineEnd);
outputStream.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + lineEnd);
// Responses from the server (code and message)
int serverResponseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
String serverResponseMessage = connection.getResponseMessage();
System.out.println("Server Response Code " + " " + serverResponseCode);
System.out.println("Server Response Message "+ serverResponseMessage);
if (serverResponseCode == 200) {
response = "true";
} else {
response = "false";
}
fileInputStream.close();
outputStream.flush();
connection.getInputStream();
//for android InputStream is = connection.getInputStream();
java.io.InputStream is = connection.getInputStream();
int ch;
StringBuffer b = new StringBuffer();
while((ch = is.read()) != -1 ) {
b.append((char)ch);
}
String responseString = b.toString();
System.out.println("response string is" + responseString); //Here is the actual output
outputStream.close();
outputStream = null;
} catch (Exception ex) {
// Exception handling
response = "error";
System.out.println("Send file Exception" + ex.getMessage() + "");
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return response;
I came to know that during downloading files, we can pause and resume the download and there are a lot of codes available. I tried that codes and also got the solution.
But can i pause and resume the upload process in Httpurlconnection. Forgive me if my question is silly because i am newly learning this concepts. Can anyone help me here for pausing and resuming upload since there are no codes available upto my knowledge.
After debugging, i am getting the response for size of file upload here at this piece of code,
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
try {
while (bytesRead > 0) {
try {
outputStream.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
} catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {
e.printStackTrace();
response = "outofmemoryerror";
return response;
}
bytesAvailable = fileInputStream.available();
bufferSize = Math.min(bytesAvailable, maxBufferSize);
bytesRead = fileInputStream.read(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
response = "error";
return response;
}
Hoping to get some help to update myself.
