Sudhir,
At the server side over ride the doPost method in your servlet and
deserialize
the object there. I believe calling setDoOutput(true) on the URLConnection
causes it to do a POST instead of a GET.
Here's some sample code:
public void doPost (HttpServletRequest httpRequest, HttpServletResponse
httpResponse)
{
try
{
ObjectInputStream ois = new
ObjectInputStream(httpRequest.getInputStream());
Object object = ois.readObject();
....etc.
// and send an object back if you want to
ObjectOutputStream oos = new
ObjectOutputStream(httpResponse.getOutputStream());
oos.writeObject(outgoing);
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
// report this exception
}
}
Hope this helps,
Rob Griffin
