HttpStatus become deprecated in API level 22

Question

Usually I used to check for the server different code responses in my RestClient class using the org.apache.http.HttpStatus class as the following

Answer 1

you can cast the returned value of openConnection to HttpURLConnection, and use getResponseCode() to retrieve response code

HttpURLConnection urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
final int responseCode = urlConnection.getResponseCode();
if (responseCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {

} else if (responseCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_BAD_GATEWAY) {

}

HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode() documentation is here
