How to send an object using BackgroundUploader? RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi All,

    I am trying to upload an object contains one File and some string values (Object details are mentioned below) using backgrounduploader class. but I am unable to upload it using backgrounduploader. It is considering only File to upload  to the service.

    Object details :
    public class Pictures
        {
            public string PictureName { get; set; }
            public StorageFile file { get; set; }
            public string username{ get; set; }
            public string senderName { get; set; }
            public string receiverName { get; set; }

        }

    BackgroundUploader uploader = new BackgroundUploader();
    
                uploader.SetRequestHeader("Filename", file.Name);
                uploader.Method = "POST";
                
               
                
                
    
                UploadOperation upload = uploader.CreateUpload(uri, file);

    as shown in the above, I need to send an object instead of file.

    Is there any other mechanism to perform this operation? Could anyone please help me to figure out this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

  • You should package everything into a file (zip would work well) and send it together.

    NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with undefined objects and unknown namespaces.
