URLFetcher
<http://joist.tigris.org/source/browse/joist/java/org/joist/util/URLFetcher.java?rev=1.4&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup>
performs any necessary auth, then grabs a stream to the content of the
URLs that you point it at. The only way I could see it being used for
two way communication is through CGI parameter passing. Though I've
never used it myself, I would recommend XML-RPC--rather than CGI--for
any serious message passing.
If you're interested in how the XML parser handoff and implementation
work, I can describe it a little bit, but the code is not currently OS.
Lemme know. :)
