If you read the docs carefully, you’ll notice that you should use MultipartEntityBuilder
as an alternative.
For example:
MultipartEntityBuilder builder = MultipartEntityBuilder.create();
/* example for setting a HttpMultipartMode */
builder.setMode(HttpMultipartMode.BROWSER_COMPATIBLE);
/* example for adding an image part */
FileBody fileBody = new FileBody(new File(image)); //image should be a String
builder.addPart("my_file", fileBody);
//and so on
Note that there are several constructors for the FileBody
class, by which you can provide mimeType, content type, etc.
After you’re done with passing build instructions to the builder, you can get the built HttpEntity
by invoking the MultipartEntityBuilder#build()
method:
HttpEntity entity = builder.build();
