TITLE OF THE LAB REPORT EXPERIMENT
Implementing HTTP GET and POST methods.

OBJECTIVES
• To establish HTTP connection using Java.
• To send GET request to specified website and print the response.

PROCEDURE
1. Initialize URL connection and create URL object with website link.
2. Open connection using HttpURLConnection.
3. Set HTTP request method to GET.
4. Send request and store response code and message.
5. Print response message and code.
6. If response code is 200, then:
i) Use InputStreamReader and BufferedReader to read response line by line.
ii) Print the response.
iii) Return the values in dotted-decimal format.
7. If response code is not 200, then print error message.
8. End the program.

IMPLEMENTATION
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class GET {


public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String urlString = "https://webcode.me/";
HttpURLConnection con;

@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
URL url = new URL(urlString);
con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

con.setRequestMethod("GET");
con.setInstanceFollowRedirects(false);
con.setConnectTimeout(5000);
con.setReadTimeout(5000);

int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();


String responseMessage = con.getResponseMessage();

1
System.out.println("The response message and code from website is: " +
responseMessage + " " + responseCode);
System.out.println("Now we get our website:");

if (responseCode == 200) {
InputStreamReader in = new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream());
BufferedReader read = new BufferedReader(in);
String str;

while ((str = read.readLine()) != null) {


System.out.println(str);
}
} else {
System.out.println("Error: " + responseCode + " - " +
responseMessage);
}
}
}

ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION


The program in this report builds HTTP connection in Java and sends a GET request to the
specified website. It retrieves the response code and message and if the response is 200, then it
prints the webpage content. If an error occurs, it displays the error message.

SUMMARY
In summary, the program successfully fetches and displays webpage content using Java's
HttpURLConnection. It demonstrates how to the HTTP GET request works in Java.
