```
public final class FileContent
extends AbstractInputStreamContent
```
Concrete implementation of AbstractInputStreamContent that generates repeatable input streams based on the contents of a file.
Sample use:
```
 
  private static void setRequestJpegContent(HttpRequest request, File jpegFile) {
    request.setContent(new FileContent("image/jpeg", jpegFile));
  }

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`File`	`getFile()` Returns the file.
`InputStream`	`getInputStream()` Return an input stream for the specific implementation type of `AbstractInputStreamContent`.
`long`	`getLength()` Returns the content length or less than zero if not known.
`boolean`	`retrySupported()` Returns whether or not retry is supported on this content type.
`FileContent`	`setCloseInputStream(boolean closeInputStream)` Sets whether the input stream should be closed at the end of `AbstractInputStreamContent.writeTo(java.io.OutputStream)`.

```
    Description copied from class: AbstractInputStreamContent
    
    Return an input stream for the specific implementation type of AbstractInputStreamContent. If the specific implementation will return true for HttpContent.retrySupported() this should be a factory function which will create a new InputStream from the source data whenever invoked.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getInputStream in class AbstractInputStreamContent
    
    Throws:
    
    FileNotFoundException

  - setType
```
public FileContent setType(String type)
```
    Description copied from class: AbstractInputStreamContent
    
    Sets the content type or null for none. Subclasses should override by calling super.
  - setCloseInputStream
```
public FileContent setCloseInputStream(boolean closeInputStream)
```
    Description copied from class: AbstractInputStreamContent
    
    Sets whether the input stream should be closed at the end of AbstractInputStreamContent.writeTo(java.io.OutputStream). Default is true. Subclasses should override by calling super.
