Class MultipartStream
- java.lang.Object
-
- org.apache.catalina.fileupload.MultipartStream

public class MultipartStream extends Object
Low level API for processing file uploads.
This class can be used to process data streams conforming to MIME 'multipart' format as defined in RFC 1867. Arbitrarily large amounts of data in the stream can be processed under constant memory usage.
The format of the stream is defined in the following way:
multipart-body := preamble 1*encapsulation close-delimiter epilogue
encapsulation := delimiter body CRLF
delimiter := "--" boundary CRLF
close-delimiter := "--" boudary "--"
preamble := <ignore>
epilogue := <ignore>
body := header-part CRLF body-part
header-part := 1*header CRLF
header := header-name ":" header-value
header-name := <printable ascii characters except ":">
header-value := <any ascii characters except CR & LF>
body-data := <arbitrary data>
Note that body-data can contain another mulipart entity. There is limited support for single pass processing of such nested streams. The nested stream is required to have a boundary token of the same length as the parent stream (see
setBoundary(byte[])
).Here is an example of usage of this class.
try { MultipartStream multipartStream = new MultipartStream(input, boundary); boolean nextPart = multipartStream.skipPreamble(); OutputStream output; while(nextPart) { header = chunks.readHeader(); // process headers // create some output stream multipartStream.readBodyPart(output); nextPart = multipartStream.readBoundary(); } } catch(MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException e) { // the stream failed to follow required syntax } catch(IOException) { // a read or write error occurred }

- Constant Field Values
-

public static final byte LF
The Line Feed ASCII character value.- See Also:
- Constant Field Values
-
DASH
public static final byte DASH
The dash (-) ASCII character value.- See Also:
- Constant Field Values

Method Detail
-
getHeaderEncoding
public String getHeaderEncoding()
Retrieves the character encoding used when reading the headers of an individual part. When not specified, ornull
, the platform default encoding is used.- Returns:
- The encoding used to read part headers.
-
setHeaderEncoding
public void setHeaderEncoding(String encoding)
Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of individual parts. When not specified, ornull
, the platform default encoding is used.- Parameters:
encoding
- The encoding used to read part headers.
-
readByte
public byte readByte() throws IOException
Reads a byte from thebuffer
, and refills it as necessary.- Returns:
- The next byte from the input stream.
- Throws:
IOException
- if there is no more data available.
-
readBoundary
public boolean readBoundary() throws MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
Skips aboundary
token, and checks whether moreencapsulations
are contained in the stream.- Returns:
true
if there are more encapsulations in this stream;false
otherwise.- Throws:
MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
- if the stream ends unexpecetedly or fails to follow required syntax.
-
setBoundary
public void setBoundary(byte[] boundary) throws MultipartStream.IllegalBoundaryException
Changes the boundary token used for partitioning the stream.
This method allows single pass processing of nested multipart streams.
The boundary token of the nested stream is
required
to be of the same length as the boundary token in parent stream.Restoring the parent stream boundary token after processing of a nested stream is left to the application.
- Parameters:
boundary
- The boundary to be used for parsing of the nested stream.- Throws:
MultipartStream.IllegalBoundaryException
- if theboundary
has a different length than the one being currently parsed.
-
readHeaders
public String readHeaders() throws MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
Reads the
header-part
of the currentencapsulation
.Headers are returned verbatim to the input stream, including the trailing
CRLF
marker. Parsing is left to the application.TODO allow limiting maximum header size to protect against abuse.
- Returns:
- The
header-part
of the current encapsulation. - Throws:
MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
- if the stream ends unexpecetedly.
-
readBodyData
public int readBodyData(OutputStream output) throws MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException, IOException
Reads
body-data
from the currentencapsulation
and writes its contents into the outputStream
.Arbitrary large amounts of data can be processed by this method using a constant size buffer. (see
constructor
).- Parameters:
output
- TheStream
to write data into. May be null, in which case this method is equivalent todiscardBodyData()
.- Returns:
- the amount of data written.
- Throws:
MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
- if the stream ends unexpectedly.IOException
- if an i/o error occurs.
-
discardBodyData
public int discardBodyData() throws MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException, IOException
Reads
body-data
from the currentencapsulation
and discards it.Use this method to skip encapsulations you don't need or don't understand.
- Returns:
- The amount of data discarded.
- Throws:
MultipartStream.MalformedStreamException
- if the stream ends unexpectedly.IOException
- if an i/o error occurs.
-
skipPreamble
public boolean skipPreamble() throws IOException
Finds the beginning of the firstencapsulation
.- Returns:
true
if anencapsulation
was found in the stream.- Throws:
IOException
- if an i/o error occurs.
-
arrayequals
public static boolean arrayequals(byte[] a, byte[] b, int count)
Comparescount
first bytes in the arraysa
andb
.- Parameters:
a
- The first array to compare.b
- The second array to compare.count
- How many bytes should be compared.- Returns:
true
ifcount
first bytes in arraysa
andb
are equal.
-
findByte
protected int findByte(byte value, int pos)
Searches for a byte of specified value in thebuffer
, starting at the specifiedposition
.- Parameters:
value
- The value to find.pos
- The starting position for searching.- Returns:
- The position of byte found, counting from beginning of the
buffer
, or-1
if not found.
-
findSeparator
protected int findSeparator()
Searches for theboundary
in thebuffer
region delimited byhead
andtail
.- Returns:
- The position of the boundary found, counting from the
beginning of the
buffer
, or-1
if not found.
