static UrlEncodedContent	getContent(HttpRequest request) Returns the URL-encoded content of the given HTTP request, or if none return and set as content a new instance of UrlEncodedContent (whose getData() is an implementation of Map).
Object	getData() Returns the key name/value data or null for none.
UrlEncodedContent	setData(Object data) Sets the key name/value data.

Constructor Detail

UrlEncodedContent

public UrlEncodedContent(Object data)

Upgrade warning: prior to version 1.11 the data parameter could be null but now instead it throws a NullPointerException.

Parameters:

data - key name/value data

Method Detail

writeTo

public void writeTo(OutputStream out)
             throws IOException

Description copied from interface: HttpContent

Writes the content to the given output stream.

The recommendation for implementations is that they should not close the output stream. Callers should not assume whether or not the output stream has been closed. Implementations that do not close the output stream should flush it at the end of the method.

Throws:

IOException

setMediaType

public UrlEncodedContent setMediaType(HttpMediaType mediaType)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpContent

Sets the media type to use for the Content-Type header, or null if unspecified.

This will also overwrite any previously set parameter of the media type (for example "charset"), and therefore might change other properties as well.

Overrides:

setMediaType in class AbstractHttpContent

getData

public final Object getData()

Returns the key name/value data or null for none.

Since:

1.5

setData

public UrlEncodedContent setData(Object data)

Sets the key name/value data.

Overriding is only supported for the purpose of calling the super implementation and changing the return type, but nothing else.

Upgrade warning: prior to version 1.11 the data parameter could be null but now instead it throws a NullPointerException.

Since:

1.5

getContent

public static UrlEncodedContent getContent(HttpRequest request)

Returns the URL-encoded content of the given HTTP request, or if none return and set as content a new instance of UrlEncodedContent (whose getData() is an implementation of Map).

Parameters:

request - HTTP request

Returns:

URL-encoded content

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the HTTP request has a content defined that is not UrlEncodedContent

Since:

1.7
