Hi Jens,
Unable to find any API's for setting the headers of the http request with NSURL.
Why API's for uploading the file to the server needs to go through NSInputStream? Its output from client perspective. So
isn't the API's are bit odd !
If you have any sample code where a http request is created, body is set and send to the server, will be great help.
With Regards

I cannot point the input stream to a file. The request body should have the bytes for the XML followed by the file data bytes.
Can i create a temporary file appending XML bytes and file data bytes and the point the input stream to that file.

The option you suggest will work, but it’ll be slow for large files. If you don’t care about large files, you might as well just assemble the response data in memory and set it as the HTTPBody property.
If you do need to handle huge files and don’t want to copy the file, you could create your own NSInputStream subclass that when read first returns the XML data, and then opens a private input stream on the file and returns data from that.
