HttpClient的支持在HTTP/1.1规范中定义的所有的HTTP方法:GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, TRACE 和 OPTIONS。每有一个方法都有一个对应的类:HttpGet,HttpHead,HttpPost,HttpPut,HttpDelete,HttpTrace和HttpOptions。所有的这些类均实现了HttpUriRequest接口,故可以作为execute的执行参数使用。请求URI是能够应用请求的统一资源标识符。 HTTP请求的URI包含一个协议计划protocol scheme,主机名host name,,可选的端口optional port,资源的路径resource path,可选的查询optional query和可选的片段optional fragment。
head,put,delete,trace HttpClient支持这些方法,
大多数浏览器不支持这些方法,原因是Html 4中对 FORM 的method方法只支持两个get和post,很多浏览器还都依然是基于html4的。
通常会在JAVA中通过代码调用URL进行远端方法调用,这些方法有的是Get请求方式的,有的是POST请求方式的,为此,总结一例,贴出以便查阅。
