How to handle file upload from web service

Question

I'm developing an Iphone/Android application. I need to create a web service for handling uploading images.

Mobile devices can send images to my web service.

How can i handle sent files in java?

Answer 1

Easiest way would be to read the image into a byte array on the client side, then send that over the web-service and convert it back into an image on the server side.
