NSURLConnection chunked encoding upload - How?

Question

I need to create a way to upload a bytestream using chunked encoding.

I have a byte array that contains an audio file, I would like to send that file to a server using a chunked stream.

I've been able to do a chunked upload via a native socket but I would really like to do this via one of the NSURL (NSURLConnection?) libs. Is that possible?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can do this using ASIHTTPRequest, available here: http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/How-to-use

Scroll way down to "Streaming request bodies directly from disk"

My experience with the NSURLConnection classes has been awful. They are full of memory leaks.

After much trial and failure, I now use an iPhone compiled version of libcurl; it's far better, see here..
