What is the proper way of setting headers in a URLConnection?

Question

My code is like the following:

URLConnection cnx = address.openConnection();
cnx.setAllowUserInteraction(false);         
cnx.setDoOutput(true);
cnx.addReque         


        

Answer 1

I'd advise against using low-level constructs such as URLConnection. There are plenty of libraries for sending HTTP requests, with the most prominent being Apache HTTP Client.
