Function

Soupform_decode_multipart

Declaration [src]

GHashTable*
soup_form_decode_multipart (
  SoupMultipart* multipart,
  const char* file_control_name,
  char** filename,
  char** content_type,
  GBytes** file
)

Description [src]

Decodes the “multipart/form-data” request in multipart.

this is a convenience method for the case when you have a single file upload control in a form. (Or when you don’t have any file upload controls, but are still using “multipart/form-data” anyway.) Pass the name of the file upload control in file_control_name, and soup_form_decode_multipart() will extract the uploaded file data into filename, content_type, and file. All of the other form control data will be returned (as strings, as with soup_form_decode() in the returned GHashTable.

You may pass NULL for filename, content_type and/or file if you do not care about those fields. soup_form_decode_multipart() may also return NULL in those fields if the client did not provide that information. You must free the returned filename and content-type with g_free(), and the returned file data with Glib.Bytes.unref.

If you have a form with more than one file upload control, you will need to decode it manually, using soup_multipart_new_from_message() and soup_multipart_get_part().
