java 设置http响应,获取Java中的HTTP响应大小

I would like to know how much data was sent in response to a certain http-request.

What I currently do is this:

HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) feedurl.openConnection();

//check the response for the content-size

int feedsize = con.getContentLength();

The problem is, that content-legnth is not always set. E.g. when the server uses transfer-encoding=chunked I get back a value of -1.

I do not need this to display progress information. I just need to know the size of the data that was sent to me after it has been done.

Background: I need this information because I would like to compare it to the size of a response, that was sent using gzip encoding.

I'd use a commons-io CountingInputStream, which would do the job for you. A full but trivial example:

public long countContent(URL feedurl) {

CountingInputStream counter = null;

try {

HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) feedurl.openConnection();

counter = new CountingInputStream(con.getInputStream());

String output = IOUtils.toString(counter);

return counter.getByteCount();

} catch (IOException ex) {

throw new RuntimeException(ex);

} finally {

IOUtils.closeQuietly(counter);

}

}
