The English version of this article see: Android Common Utils
All codes are in TrineaAndroidCommon@Github. Star or Fork^_* are welcome. In addition to these tool classes, this project also includes caching, drop-down ListView, etc. Detailed interface introduction can be found in TrineaAndroidCommon API Guide.
Specific use: You can directly introduce TrineaAndroidCommon as the library of your project (how to pull the code and add public libraries), or extract part of it yourself for use.
1. HttpUtils
Http network tool class, mainly including httpGet, httpPost and http parameter related methods, taking httpGet as an example:
static HttpResponse httpGet(HttpRequest request)
static HttpResponse httpGet(java.lang.String httpUrl)
static String httpGetString(String httpUrl)
Contains the above three methods, uses gzip compression by default, and uses bufferedReader to improve reading speed.
Other http parameters such as url, timeout, userAgent, etc. can be set in HttpRequest
In HttpResponse, you can get the return content, http response code, http expiration time (max-age and expires of Cache-Control), etc.
The first two methods can perform advanced parameter settings and return rich content. The third method can simply pass in the URL to obtain the returned content, similar to httpPost. For more detailed settings, you can use HttpURLConnection or apache's HttpClient directly.
The source code can be found in HttpUtils.java, and more methods and more detailed parameter introductions can be found in the HttpUtils Api Guide.
