    public class MultipartPostMethod

    Deprecated.

    Implements the HTTP multipart POST method.

    The HTTP multipart POST method is defined in section 3.3 of RFC1867:

    The media-type multipart/form-data follows the rules of all multipart MIME data streams as outlined in RFC 1521. The multipart/form-data contains a series of parts. Each part is expected to contain a content-disposition header where the value is "form-data" and a name attribute specifies the field name within the form, e.g., 'content-disposition: form-data; name="xxxxx"', where xxxxx is the field name corresponding to that field. Field names originally in non-ASCII character sets may be encoded using the method outlined in RFC 1522.

    Since:
    2.0
