Description

As documented, multipart HTTP requests and responses are not currently supported properly by the Saxon-JS HTTP client (ixsl:schedule-action/@http-request).

See https://www.saxonica.com/saxon-js/documentation/index.html#!development/http :

Note that multipart HTTP requests are not currently implemented. Some rules anticipate these being available.

Multipart responses are not currently properly handled. A multipart response will be returned as one text/plain body in body (rather than an array of body parts in multipart-bodies.)

It has always been on the todo list to extend the support for multipart HTTP messages, but there has been no progress on this for some time.

The lack of support is an issue for sending FormData by HTTP. See notes #4732#note-4 and #4732#note-6 in Issue Support #4732: Upgrading AtomGraph application from Saxon-CE to Saxon-JS 2.
