HTTPS Upload File to Web Server

See more HTTP Examples

Uploads a file to a web server using HTTPS. Rust

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// The ContentType, HttpVerb, and Path properties should
// always be explicitly set.
let req = chilkat::HttpRequest::new();
req.set_http_verb("POST");
req.set_path("/receiveMyUpload.aspx");
req.set_content_type("multipart/form-data");

let _ = req.add_string_for_upload("fileA", "fileA.txt", "This is the contents of file A", "utf-8");
if req.add_file_for_upload("starfish.jpg", "qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg").is_err() {
    println!("{}", req.last_error_text());
    return;
}

let http = chilkat::Http::new();

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// IMPORTANT:
// HTTP uploads require a counterpart implementation on the server, written in any desired language
// such as C#, Classic ASP, PHP, etc., which consumes the upload being sent.
// See: ASP.NET Receive Upload
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

// Do the upload.
let use_ssl_tls = true;
