Uploading Media files from iPhone to server

Question

I am developing an application which can upload Media files (Audio, Video, Image) to the server. I found out a way by using PHP server code we ware able to get the image in server and store it. I like to know what is the better way to upload a image to a server (SOAP or REST or using PHP).

Answer 1

Microsoft has an article on how to use DIME (Direct Internet Message Encapsulation)

IBM also has another way of sending soap attachments that seems a little older.

Answer 2

there are two way to upload the file using soap first is using base64_decode() and base64_encode() method and anothere is using URL that is send by android (SOAP) php server.. code is

   $tmpfile1 = './ABC.wmv'; (file from location)  
   $filename1 = 'video';      
   $handle1 = fopen($tmpfile, "r");(open in read mode)                   
   $contents1 = fread($handle1, filesize($tmpfile1));
   fclose($handle1);                                 
   $profile_video   = base64_encode($contents); (and decode it)
