I am stuck using HttpURLConnection to make a PUT http request to a web-server. I have some code that will make a PUT request just fine, and I can trivially include the 'Expect 100-continue Request Property' in the headers however try as I might I can't seem to make the function wait for the '100 Continue' response from the server before sending the actual http payload.
I get the following (from Wireshark)
PUT /post/ HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: curl/7.35.0
Accept: */*
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Expect: 100-continue
Host: somerandomdomain.info
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 17
Some data for you
HTTP/1.1 100 Continue
...rest of web-server response...
I'm sure I am missing something obvious however after googling I have drawn a blank - can anyone help?
Many thanks if so :)
Http PUT code snippet below:
String url = "http://somerandomdomain.info";
String postJsonData = "Some data for you\n";
URL obj = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
// Setting basic post request
con.setRequestMethod("PUT");
con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "jcurl/7.35.0");
con.setRequestProperty("Accept", "*/*");
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", postData.length() + "");
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
con.setRequestProperty("Expect", "100-continue");
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(postData);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Post Data : " + postData);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
String output;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((output = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(output);
}
in.close();
//printing result from response
System.out.println(response.toString());
