Dear Friends,
the URLConnection class is buffering at the beginning and it is unusable for a progressbar-feature. (directly 100 % - but is still transfering)
Is there a class which is similar to URLConnection but without buffer or cache?
Thank you very much!

Well, the Socket Class could be a solution.
1. But how can I open a channel to a HTTP-Server?
2. And how can I send the HTTP headers?
3. The best would be to wrap the stuff into a new Class called "URLConnectionSocket" or like that. So I don't need to restructure everything but to replace some portions of my uploader-class-code...
Btw.: (The thread which was posted): Deactivation of the Caching / Buffering features of the URLConnection didn't solve the problem in any way.
Because the caching into some ByteArray is hard-coded the URLConnection class is not usable for progressBars.
And - no - it is not a GUI-Problem because I output the results on the console. And the console is thread-save (yea).
Thank you very much
With best regards

Connect on the port the server is listening to (typically 80).

Okay.

Jakarta's HttpClient might be of use? Never used it.
ProgressMonitorInputStream? Never could figure out how it knows the percentage, though.

I don't think that is a proper assessment. Apples and oranges... the console and UI aren't related.
There's always the fake progress results way.
Well - I did a short look on the HTTP-Protocol.
I saw that is theoritically not needed to answer something to the http-server, right?
Well, I just send my multipart-post-stuff over the stream and close the connection again.
I absolutely don't need any response.
So - do I only need that code?:
//...
try {
//Open HTTP-Socket-Connection on HTTP-Port 80:
HTTPSocket = new Socket(toConnect.toString(), 80, true);
InputStream sInStream = HTTPSocket.getInputStream();
//Now pump the stuff (header + Content (multipart-form-data) in to the stream:
//...
//Close the connection again, bye Server, do something with that...
HTTPSocket.close();
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
Pls check!
Thank you!
With best regards!
