<DT><PRE>public interface <B>HttpClient</B></DL>
</PRE>
<P>
This interface represents only the most basic contract for HTTP request
execution. It imposes no restrictions or particular details on the request
execution process and leaves the specifics of state management,
authentication and redirect handling up to individual implementations.
This should make it easier to decorate the interface with additional
functionality such as response content caching.
<p/>
The usual execution flow can be demonstrated by the code snippet below:
<PRE>
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// Prepare a request object
HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://www.apache.org/");
// Execute the request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget);
// Examine the response status
System.out.println(response.getStatusLine());
// Get hold of the response entity
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
// If the response does not enclose an entity, there is no need
// to worry about connection release
if (entity != null) {
InputStream instream = entity.getContent();
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(instream));
// do something useful with the response
System.out.println(reader.readLine());
} catch (IOException ex) {
// In case of an IOException the connection will be released
// back to the connection manager automatically
throw ex;
} catch (RuntimeException ex) {
// In case of an unexpected exception you may want to abort
// the HTTP request in order to shut down the underlying
// connection and release it back to the connection manager.
httpget.abort();
throw ex;
} finally {
// Closing the input stream will trigger connection release
instream.close();
}
// When HttpClient instance is no longer needed,
// shut down the connection manager to ensure
// immediate deallocation of all system resources
httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
}
