HELP!!! I am stuck … I have been searching wmusers, advantage etc … and I keep finding parts of the answer but not the whole answer… Any help would be welcomed … I am using wm IS 6.5

I have this niffty web page that allows me to select multiple files, and it then calls a webMethods service which I can extract (get) the ContentStream and then convert it into mimeData document.

I can use the wm Public mime services to getBodyPart and getBodyPartHeader.

Then this is where I start hitting me head against a brick wall, for the past 3 days. How do I parse out the filenames, and the actual file content to then save them to some location on my wm unix server.

My guess is I need some sort of java service that is able to parse out the body/part/content (((java.io.ByteArrayInputStream@13fee37)))) into the right pieces and then i can use them however … I am not a java guy (I can barely spell java)

Here is example of the output I am receiving and then the html for the web page I am using for data entry

*** The web page is really cool how it works ***

ANY HELP WOULD BE WELCOME!!!

Did you see this page I put up on binary file upload here:? [url]wmusers.com

If you follow the steps there, it should be simple. This process does not use the WmPublic MIME services at all - just install the WM-provided ContentHandler.zip package, and let webMethods do the hard work converting the uploaded files to byte arrays.

I suggest you try uploading one file first, then modify that to upload multiple files.
