Hi all... I have, what seems, a pretty basic need, but I'm hitting a
roadblock. I get a response from an HttpClient/HttpMethod GET request
and when I use "responseBody" I get the full response, but also a
warning that I should be using "responseBodyAsStream". I changed my
code to use "responseBodyAsStream" and when I look at what I get, it is
always truncated. Switching back to "responseBody," it once again comes
back complete. Am I not implementing the stream properly?
int size = 0;
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
StringBuffer responseBuff = new StringBuffer();
InputStream in = null;
try{
in = method.getResponseBodyAsStream();
while ((size = in.read(buffer)) != -1)
responseBuff.append(new String(buffer));
}finally{
in.close();
}
String xmlStr = responseBuff.toString();
When I run the above code and attach my debugger, "xmlStr" is always
truncated when I use "responseBodyAsStream". As I said, switching back
to "responseBody" works fine and the response is complete. I've tried
using a byte array and a char array (the reason I use the byte array
here is that the response is saved to a file).
I'm using HttpClient 3.1, and am not currently able to upgrade to 4.0
due to library dependencies.
Thoughts? Thanks!
