In this section, you will
learn how to get content-length, content- type, and last-modify
date of a file. Here we provide a complete example that uses getHeaderFieldKey()
method. Firstly create a class GetHTTPHeader and initialize a
class URLConnection. Then we call openConnection() method. After
that we use the try and catch block to know whether the code is working
correctly or not.
This is the method returns the key for the nth header field. The HTTP server returns the status line. In this case, getHeaderField()
method returns the status line, but getHeaderFieldKey() method returns
null.
Here is the code:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class GetHTTPHeader{
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException {
try {
URL url = new URL
("file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/comp23/Desktop/AnimationLine.html");
System.out.println(url);
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
for (int i=0; i< 10; i++) {
String name = con.getHeaderFieldKey(i);
String value = con.getHeaderField(i);
if (name == null && value == null){
break;
}
else{
System.out.println(name + "=" + value);
}
}
}
catch (Exception e) {}
}
}
Here is the code of this program:
