java获取数据,以Java获取数据

I'm a java novice. Is it possible to get data from a website and then store it in some sort of data structure? For example, the program gets the value of a stock from yahoo finance at a given time and stores it. Like I said, I'm not that proficient with Java and I'd like to know if this could be done. If it can be, is it very hard to do it?

public class GetYahooData

{

public ArrayList getOutputFromUrl(String url)

{

ArrayList output = new ArrayList();

HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();

HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);

HttpResponse response;

StringBuilder builder= new StringBuilder();

JSONObject myjson ;

JSONArray the_json_array;

try

{

response = httpClient.execute(httpPost);

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent(), "UTF-8"));

char[] buf = new char[8000];

int l = 0;

while (l >= 0)

{

builder.append(buf, 0, l);

l = in.read(buf);

}

myjson = new JSONObject("{child:"+builder.toString()+"}");

JSONObject mmm = new JSONObject(builder.toString());

JSONArray mmmArr = mmm.getJSONArray("status");

the_json_array = myjson.getJSONArray("child");

for (int i = 0; i < the_json_array.length(); i++)

{

JSONObject another_json_object = the_json_array.getJSONObject(i);//the_json_array.getJSONObject(i);

output.add(another_json_object);

}

} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {

System.out.println("ClientProtocolException :"+e);

e.printStackTrace();

} catch (IOException e) {

System.out.println("IOException :"+e);

e.printStackTrace();

} catch (JSONException e) {

System.out.println("JSONException hussain :"+e);

e.printStackTrace();

}

return output;

}

}

public class useYahoo

{

public static void main(String args[])

{

String url = "the url you want the response from";

getYahooData object = new GetYahooData();

ArrayList output = object.getOutputFromUrl(url);

}

}
