Upload files with other parameters in .NET

To simply send a file, .NET has this built-in.  Very easy to use.


System.Net.WebClient webClient = new System.Net.WebClient();
webClient.UploadFileAsync(new Uri(anURL),  aFile);


However, I needed to specify the file name and send other parameters, so here's what I did with the help of Krystalware.HttpUploadHelper:


// my files to upload
UploadFile[] files = new UploadFile[] { 
  new UploadFile(aFile, "aFileName", "application/zip")
};


// form data
NameValueCollection form = new NameValueCollection();
form["guid"] = guid;


HttpUploadHelper.Upload(anURL, files, form);
