Constructor Detail

ConnectMethod

public ConnectMethod()
Deprecated. use #ConnectMethod(HttpHost); Create a connect method.

Since:
3.0

ConnectMethod

public ConnectMethod(HttpMethod method)
Deprecated. the wrapped method is no longer used Create a connect method wrapping the existing method

Parameters:
method - the method to execute after connecting to the server

ConnectMethod

public ConnectMethod(HostConfiguration targethost)
Create a connect method.

3.0
Method Detail

getName

public String getName()
Provide the name of this method.

Specified by:
getName in interface HttpMethod
Specified by:
getName in class HttpMethodBase
Returns:
the String "CONNECT"

getPath

public String getPath()
Description copied from class: HttpMethodBase
Gets the path of this HTTP method. Calling this method after the request has been executed will return the actual path, following any redirects automatically handled by this HTTP method.

Specified by:
getPath in interface HttpMethod
Overrides:
getPath in class HttpMethodBase
Returns:
the path to request or "/" if the path is blank.

getURI

public URI getURI()
           throws URIException
Description copied from class: HttpMethodBase
Returns the URI of the HTTP method

Specified by:
getURI in interface HttpMethod
Overrides:
getURI in class HttpMethodBase
Returns:
The URI
Throws:
URIException - If the URI cannot be created.
See Also:
HttpMethod.getURI()

addCookieRequestHeader

protected void addCookieRequestHeader(HttpState state,
                                      HttpConnection conn)
                               throws IOException,
                                      HttpException
This method does nothing. CONNECT request is not supposed to contain Cookie request header.

Overrides:
addCookieRequestHeader in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
state - current state of http requests
conn - the connection to use for I/O
Throws:
IOException - when errors occur reading or writing to/from the connection
HttpException - when a recoverable error occurs
See Also:
HttpMethodBase.addCookieRequestHeader(HttpState, HttpConnection)

addRequestHeaders

protected void addRequestHeaders(HttpState state,
                                 HttpConnection conn)
                          throws IOException,
                                 HttpException
Populates the request headers map to with additional headers to be submitted to the given HttpConnection.

This implementation adds User-Agent, Host, and Proxy-Authorization headers, when appropriate.

Overrides:
addRequestHeaders in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
state - the client state
conn - the HttpConnection the headers will eventually be written to
Throws:
IOException - when an error occurs writing the request
HttpException - when a HTTP protocol error occurs
See Also:
HttpMethodBase.writeRequestHeaders(org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpState, org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpConnection)

execute

public int execute(HttpState state,
                   HttpConnection conn)
            throws IOException,
                   HttpException
Execute this method and create a tunneled HttpConnection. If the method is successful (i.e. the status is a 2xx) tunnelCreated() will be called on the connection.

Specified by:
execute in interface HttpMethod
Overrides:
execute in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
state - the current http state
conn - the connection to write to
Returns:
the http status code from execution
Throws:
HttpException - when an error occurs writing the headers
IOException - when an error occurs writing the headers
See Also:
HttpConnection.tunnelCreated()

writeRequestLine

protected void writeRequestLine(HttpState state,
                                HttpConnection conn)
                         throws IOException,
                                HttpException
Special Connect request.

Overrides:
writeRequestLine in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
state - the current http state
conn - the connection to write to
Throws:
IOException - when an error occurs writing the request
HttpException - when an error occurs writing the request
See Also:
HttpMethodBase.generateRequestLine(org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpConnection, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

shouldCloseConnection

protected boolean shouldCloseConnection(HttpConnection conn)
Returns true if the status code is anything other than SC_OK, false otherwise.

Overrides:
shouldCloseConnection in class HttpMethodBase
Parameters:
conn - the connection in question
Returns:
true if the connection should be closed
