How to parse form-data from Stream in WCF?

Question

Hello Guys,

I have a webservice that will accept stream (Image). I was able to successfully save the image but part of it is I also need to get the form-data that is part of the Stream. Do you have any idea how to achieve this? Or any suggestion perhaps to achieve same functionality.

Best regards,

You could stream it as an object or structure.

struct WCFStream 
{
   Image myImage;
   String formString1;
   String formString2;
}

You should provide a DataContract in which you serialize a structure similar to the above and send it, then deserialize it on the target machine, check this example out.
