Package net.groboclown.util.http.v1 Description

Contains classes which are optimized for HTTP connections. Provides superior functionality and speed over the standard Java URL HTTP connection interface.

Also, there is Cookie support for both RFC-2109 and Netscape cookies, as well as an architecture broad enough to support any new or rare client-state format. To retrieve the cookies from a message, follow this example:

    SimpleHttpGet httpGet = new SimpleHttpGet( "my.domain.com" );
    httpGet.connect();
    URL url = new URL( "http://my.domain.com/path/index.html" );
    IHttpResponseMessage msg = httpGet.getURLResponse( url );
    IHttpClientState cookies[] = HttpClientStateUtil.getInstance().
        getClientStates( msg );

And to place the cookies into a message for a return call, perform:

    Hashtable headers = new Hashtable();
    HttpClientStateUtil.getInstance().renderGetHeader( cookies, headers, url );
    msg = httpGet.getURLResponse( url, "GET", headers, null );
