Dear developers,
I've been trying to convert the following codes using the standard
java.net.URL to the HttpClient solution. It's just a simple http tunelling
solution, sending and receiving java objects using http protocol. Here's the
source code using the java.net.URL :
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException,
ClassNotFoundException {
URL url = new URL("
http://hostname:8080/util/servlet/servlet.GetObjectServlet";);
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
OutputStream outputStream = connection.getOutputStream();
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(new
BufferedOutputStream(outputStream));
// creating an object to be sent to the servlet
Map testMap = new HashMap();
testMap.put("1", "one");
testMap.put("2", "two");
out.writeObject(testMap);
out.flush();
// read the object from the servlet
InputStream inputStream = connection.getInputStream();
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(new
BufferedInputStream(inputStream));
Map map = (Map) in.readObject();
System.out.println(map);
}
I've been searching for solution, using the Apache HttpClient library,
because i need HttpClient's timeout feature. But so far, i'm stuck with how
to send a java object to another servlet. I have yet to find out how to get
the java object from the servlet using HttpUtil. I hope it's just as simple
as :
InputStream in = method.getResponseBodyAsStream();
BufferedInputStream bin = new BufferedInputStream(in);
ObjectInputStream objIn = new ObjectInputStream(bin);
GZIPInputStream gzipIn = new GZIPInputStream(objIn);
Object object = objIn.readObject();
Could please help me ? I dont know how to send a java object to a remote
servlet. I know it has something to do with the
PostMethod.setRequestEntity.. And i've seen the implementations of
RequestEntity like
InputStreamRequestEntity, FileRequestEntity, StringRequestEntity, but
there's no ObjectRequestEntity or something.
Any pointers ? Thank you.
Regards,
Albert Kam
