I've just started using HTTPClient in my application. I have some simple
code which performs a GET request on a URL which returns XML. The XML
contains a numeric entity definition for the copyright symbol '©',
but when I read the response, it seems tha HTTPClient is converting it to
©. Is there some way to configure HTTPClient to not do this? I'm
retrieving the XML content and then passing it on to another process which
attempts to parse it and the parsing fails because the entity © isn't
defined. I need to have any entities defined in a numeric form maintained
in a numeric form. My HTTPClient code looks something like this:
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
GetMethod method = new GetMethod("some url which returns XML");
method.getParams().setParameter(HttpMethodParams.RETRY_HANDLER, new
DefaultHttpMethodRetryHandler(3, false));
try {
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(feed.hostConfiguration(),
method);
// ...
result = method.getResponseBodyAsString();
...
If the returned XML contains ©, the content returned by
getResponseBodyAsString contains © instead. I want the result to be
the same content as what was sent by the server, not processed.
I'm using HTTPClient 3.0.
Thanks!
