Hi,
I'm using Jakarta Commons HttpClient and am having trouble reading the
response to a GetMethod.
// execute method
byte[] bytes = method.getResponseBody();
String response = new String(bytes, "UTF-8");
// method.getResponseCharSet() returns "utf-8"
System.out.println(response);
Unfortunately this just displays garbage.
I added code to iterate through and print out the value of each byte. Some
come up negative which surprises me. If I put the first 50 or so values here
maybe someone can help identify what the problem is:
byte[] bytes = method.getResponseBody();
java.text.DecimalFormat df = new java.text.DecimalFormat("000");
for (int i=0; i<bytes.length; i++)
{
System.out.print(df.format(bytes[i])+" ");
if ((i+1)%20 == 0)
System.out.print('\n');
}
031 -117 008 000 000 000 000 000 000 011 -115 086 075 111 -029 054
016 -066 -025 087
008 -070 056 001 -078 090 -110 018 -011 -088 031 064 -110 -090 -040 093

018 035 -045
...
It should read
<html><head><meta HTTP-EQUIV="pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<script language="Javascript">
...
If I make the request using IE6, it can read the response and says it is
UTF-8 encoding.
Snooping on the request and response headers they look the same whether I
use IE6 or HttpClient.
Thanks
