Apache commons-httpclient - sending objects

["Subramanian, Mani P [IT]" <Ma...@sprint.com>]

Hi Team,
We would like to use the apache commons-httpclient 3.0 and its timeout
feature. We see a org.apache.commons.httpclient.util.HttpURLConnection
class for usage. Has this been used to reliably to pass java
(serializable) objects betwee client and server. Thanks


Fear Less, Hope More

Hello Mani,

It is certainly possible to use HttpClient to send/receive serialized
objects.  Being that HttpClient is content agnostic you can really
send whatever you would like.  I would however not recommend using
HttpURLConnection.  This class is really just a partially implemented
wrapper around HttpMethod objects.  Please have a look at the
HttpClient tutorial for how to get started:
