try using httpclient.execute(httpdelete,...) httpdelete does mention about request uri iam not sure whether u can send xml data u can try appending xml in the uri itself. or other way is you can write a socket and append the various headers and the xml and then send this gives u more flexibility, also there is an intereface for httpwriter if you google the api u can try implementing the interface and write the message there.
