c# - Reading file input from a multipart/form-data POST

Another way would be to use .Net parser for HttpRequest. To do that you need to use a bit of reflection and simple class for WorkerRequest.

First create class that derives from HttpWorkerRequest (for simplicity you can use SimpleWorkerRequest):

public class MyWorkerRequest : SimpleWorkerRequest
{
    private readonly string _size;
    private readonly Stream _data;
    private string _contentType;

    public MyWorkerRequest(Stream data, string size, string contentType)
        : base("/app", @"c:\", "aa", "", null)
    {
        _size = size ?? data.Length.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
        _data = data;
        _contentType = contentType;
    }

    public override string GetKnownRequestHeader(int index)
    {
        switch (index)
        {
            case (int)HttpRequestHeader.ContentLength:
                return _size;
            case (int)HttpRequestHeader.ContentType:
                return _contentType;
        }
        return base.GetKnownRequestHeader(index);
    }

    public override int ReadEntityBody(byte[] buffer, int offset, int size)
    {
        return _data.Read(buffer, offset, size);
    }

    public override int ReadEntityBody(byte[] buffer, int size)
    {
        return ReadEntityBody(buffer, 0, size);
    }
}

Then wherever you have you message stream create and instance of this class. I'm doing it like that in WCF Service:

[WebInvoke(Method = "POST",
               ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json,
               BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Bare)]
    public string Upload(Stream data)
    {
        HttpWorkerRequest workerRequest =
            new MyWorkerRequest(data,
                                WebOperationContext.Current.IncomingRequest.ContentLength.
                                    ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture),
                                WebOperationContext.Current.IncomingRequest.ContentType
                );

And then create HttpRequest using activator and non public constructor

var r = (HttpRequest)Activator.CreateInstance(
            typeof(HttpRequest),
            BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic,
            null,
            new object[]
                {
                    workerRequest,
                    new HttpContext(workerRequest)
                },
            null);

var runtimeField = typeof (HttpRuntime).GetField("_theRuntime", BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (runtimeField == null)
{
    return;
}

var runtime = (HttpRuntime) runtimeField.GetValue(null);
if (runtime == null)
{
    return;
}

var codeGenDirField = typeof(HttpRuntime).GetField("_codegenDir", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (codeGenDirField == null)
{
    return;
}

codeGenDirField.SetValue(runtime, @"C:\MultipartTemp");

After that in r.Files you will have files from your stream.
