The thing is I'm trying to upload an image to a server. The image has to be uploaded by chunks of 256kb and I need to pass the chunks count and id with every call. I can get the total number of chunks to upload and I'm using a BufferedInputStream to get the chunks bytes. But when I finish to upload all the chunks the image showed is always corrupted.
My code so far:
int chunkSize = 255 * 1024;
final long size = mFile.length();
final long chunks = mFile.length() < chunkSize? 1: (mFile.length() / chunkSize);
int chunkId = 0;
BufferedInputStream stream = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(mFile));
String lineEnd = "\r\n";
String twoHyphens = "--";
String boundary =  "RQdzAAihJq7Xp1kjraqf";// random data
for (chunkId = 0; chunkId < chunks; chunkId++) {
     URL url = new URL(urlString);
     // Open a HTTP connection to the URL
     conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
     conn.setReadTimeout(20000 /* milliseconds */);
     conn.setConnectTimeout(20000 /* milliseconds */);
     // Allow Inputs
     conn.setDoInput(true);
     // Allow Outputs
     conn.setDoOutput(true);
     // Don't use a cached copy.
     conn.setUseCaches(false);
     // Use a post method.
     conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
     conn.setRequestProperty("Connection", "Keep-Alive");
     conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data;boundary="+boundary);
     dos = new DataOutputStream( conn.getOutputStream() );
     dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
     String param1 = ""+chunkId;
     String param2 = ""+chunks;
     String param3 = mFile.getName();
    // for every param
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"chunk\"" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Length: " + param1.length() + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(param1 + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
    // Send parameter #chunks
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"chunks\"" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Length: " + param2.length() + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(param2 + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
    // Send parameter #name
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"name\"" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Length: " + param4.length() + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(param3 + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + lineEnd);
    // Send parameter #file
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"file\";filename=\"" + param4 + "\"" + lineEnd); // filename is the Name of the File to be uploaded
    dos.writeBytes("Content-Type: image/jpeg" + lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
    byte[] buffer = new byte[chunkSize];
    stream.skip(chunkId * chunkSize);
    stream.read(buffer);
    // dos.write(buffer, 0, bufferSize);
    dos.write(buffer);
    dos.writeBytes(lineEnd);
    dos.writeBytes(twoHyphens + boundary + twoHyphens + lineEnd);
    dos.flush();
    dos.close();
// read response...
}
Many thanks!
