HttpClient使用具体解释

Http协议的重要性相信不用我多说了，HttpClient相比传统JDK自带的URLConnection，添加了易用性和灵活性（详细差别，日后我们再讨论），它不仅是client发送Http请求变得easy，并且也方便了开发者測试接口（基于Http协议的），即提高了开发的效率，也方便提高代码的健壮性。因此熟练掌握HttpClient是非常重要的必修内容，掌握HttpClient后，相信对于Http协议的了解会更加深入。

一、简单介绍

HttpClient是Apache Jakarta Common下的子项目，用来提供高效的、最新的、功能丰富的支持HTTP协议的client编程工具包，而且它支持HTTP协议最新的版本号和建议。HttpClient已经应用在非常多的项目中，比方Apache Jakarta上非常著名的另外两个开源项目Cactus和HTMLUnit都使用了HttpClient。

二、特性

1. 基于标准、纯净的java语言。实现了Http1.0和Http1.1

2. 以可扩展的面向对象的结构实现了Http所有的方法（GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, OPTIONS, and TRACE）。

3. 支持HTTPS协议。

4. 通过Http代理建立透明的连接。

5. 利用CONNECT方法通过Http代理建立隧道的https连接。

6. Basic, Digest, NTLMv1, NTLMv2, NTLM2 Session, SNPNEGO/Kerberos认证方案。

7. 插件式的自己定义认证方案。

8. 便携可靠的套接字工厂使它更easy的使用第三方解决方式。

9. 连接管理器支持多线程应用。支持设置最大连接数，同一时候支持设置每一个主机的最大连接数，发现并关闭过期的连接。

10. 自己主动处理Set-Cookie中的Cookie。

11. 插件式的自己定义Cookie策略。

12. Request的输出流能够避免流中内容直接缓冲到socketserver。

13. Response的输入流能够有效的从socketserver直接读取对应内容。

14. 在http1.0和http1.1中利用KeepAlive保持持久连接。

15. 直接获取server发送的response code和 headers。

16. 设置连接超时的能力。

17. 实验性的支持http1.1 response caching。

18. 源码基于Apache License 可免费获取。

三、用法

使用HttpClient发送请求、接收响应非常easy，一般须要例如以下几步就可以。

1. 创建HttpClient对象。

2. 创建请求方法的实例，并指定请求URL。假设须要发送GET请求，创建HttpGet对象；假设须要发送POST请求，创建HttpPost对象。

3. 假设须要发送请求參数，可调用HttpGet、HttpPost共同的setParams(HetpParams params)方法来加入请求參数；对于HttpPost对象而言，也可调用setEntity(HttpEntity entity)方法来设置请求參数。

4. 调用HttpClient对象的execute(HttpUriRequest request)发送请求，该方法返回一个HttpResponse。

5. 调用HttpResponse的getAllHeaders()、getHeaders(String name)等方法可获取server的响应头；调用HttpResponse的getEntity()方法可获取HttpEntity对象，该对象包装了server的响应内容。程序可通过该对象获取server的响应内容。

6. 释放连接。不管运行方法是否成功，都必须释放连接
