onedrive rest api call to upload a file...

hi i am having trouble with calling onedrive api.here is my code,i dont understand how to use boundary in this.i am a newbie with api and going with the onedrive documentation.Any help would be appreciated.thanks

public void uploadFile(string accessToken){
set<id> allids = new set<id>();
allids.add('00Q2800000Fwl1b');
List<Attachment> content = [Select Id, Name, ContentType, BodyLength, Body, CreatedById, Description From Attachment Where ParentId IN :allids limit 1];
system.debug('@@content'+content);
httpRequest req = new httpRequest();
req.setEndPoint('https://apis.live.net/v5.0/me/skydrive/files?access_token='+accessToken);
req.setHeader('Content-Disposition', 'form-data; name="file"; filename="content[0].Name"');
req.setHeader('Content-Type', 'multipart/form-data; boundary=A300x');
//req.setLength('Content-Length',string.valueOf(content[0].BodyLength));
string Body = string.valueOf(content[0].Body); req.setBody(Body);
req.setHeader('Content-Length',string.valueOf(content[0].BodyLength));
req.setCompressed(true); req.setMethod('POST');
HttpResponse res = null;
http h= new Http();
res= h.send(req); system.debug('@@@@'+res);
System.debug('---------------------'+res.getbody());
}

error in the debug:

"error": { "code": "request_body_invalid", "message": "The request entity body for multipart form-data POST isn't valid. The expected format is:\u000d\u000a--[boundary]\u000d\u000aContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"file\"; filename=\"[FileName]\"\u000d\u000aContent-Type: application/octet-stream\u000d\u000a[CR][LF]\u000d\u000a[file contents]\u000d\u000a--[boundary]--[CR][LF]" }

There is a good article on how to send a multipart POST in POST Mutipart/form-data with HttpRequest (http://blog.enree.co/2013/01/salesforce-apex-post-mutipartform-data.html#update20141017) by Enrico Murru.

The relavant method is:

      Http http = new Http();

	List<Attachment> content = [Select Id, Name, ContentType, BodyLength, Body, CreatedById, Description From Attachment Where ParentId IN :allids limit 1];
	
	system.debug('@@content'+content);

	String reqEndPoint = 'https://apis.live.net/v5.0/me/skydrive/files?access_token='+accessToken;
    uploadFile(content[0].Body, content[0].Name, reqEndPoint);

hi Daniel,

i am having one more problem.i am getting HTTP Error 400. The request is badly formed when try to get the  authentication code .

its working perfectly when i call from my browser.

public void GetCode(){
	      http h = new http();
	      httpRequest req = new httpRequest();
	    String Clientkey = EncodingUtil.urlEncode(key,'UTF-8');  
        String uri = EncodingUtil.urlEncode(redirect_uri,'UTF-8');  
        //req.setHeader('Content-type', 'text/xml');
        //req.setHeader('Accept-Charset', 'UTF-8');
	      req.setMethod('GET');
	      string str ='https://login.live.com/oauth20_authorize.srf?client_id='+Clientkey+'&scope=wl.signin wl.offline_access onedrive.readwrite&response_type=token&redirect_uri='+redirect_uri;
	      system.debug('@@str'+str);
	      req.setEndPoint(str);
	      httpResponse res = h.send(req);
	      system.debug('##res'+res);  
	      system.debug('######'+res.getBody());
      }
