java httpclient 返回xml_HttpClient获取返回类型为JSON或XML的数据

HttpClient 获取返回类型为JSON或XML的数据

使用httpcomponents-client-4.1.3(下载页面：http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/download.html 最新是5.20发布的4.2版本)向网页发送HTTP请求抓取数据。

我所调用的服务明确写了他们支持多种类型的返回结果，如下：

The content types we currently support are:

•«text/html»

•«application/xhtml+xml»

•«text/xml»

•«application/json»

若不设置返回类型，每次获取的返回的内容是默认的text/html，而我需要的是更具有信息量的xml或者json。找了很多地方，没有看到设置ContentType的，纠结了一下。。。

其实，最好的教程还是httpclient下载下来自带的例子和pdf，其中examples中就有一个ClientGZipContentCompression.java，它是用来请求获取gzip的数据并解压显示。这个文件稍微改改就可以了。如下是接收json类型。
