Method Detail

getContentType

public java.lang.String getContentType()

returns the content type of the response from the connected net resource. this method shall be called after getInputStream or getDataAsByteArr has been called.

sendRequest

public void sendRequest()
                 throws java.io.IOException

sends the request that have been passed to the constructor without expecting to receive a response.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getInputStream

public java.io.InputStream getInputStream()
                                   throws java.io.IOException

returns an InputStream from the et resource

Returns:

InputStream accessing the net resource

getDataAsByteArr

public byte[] getDataAsByteArr(int expectedDataSize)
                        throws java.io.IOException

performs the request and returns the result as a byte array.

Parameters:

expectedDataSize - size a the data in bytes expected to be returned from the net resource. this value will be replaced if the resource is able to return the available data size.

Returns:

a byte array containing the content of the net resource

Throws:

java.io.IOException

url2String

public static java.lang.String url2String(java.net.URL url)
