public Class GzipCompressingEntity

Overrides org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper.getContent.

Implements org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContent.

Doc from org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContent.

Returns a content stream of the entity. Repeatable entities are expected to create a new instance of InputStream for each invocation of this method and therefore can be consumed multiple times. Entities that are not repeatable are expected to return the same InputStream instance and therefore may not be consumed more than once.

Returns:InputStream

content stream of the entity.

Annotations

@Override

Exceptions

IOException:

if the stream could not be created

Overrides org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper.getContentEncoding.

Implements org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContentEncoding.

Doc from org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContentEncoding.

Obtains the Content-Encoding header, if known. This is the header that should be used when sending the entity, or the one that was received with the entity. Wrapping entities that modify the content encoding should adjust this header accordingly.

Returns:Header

the Content-Encoding header for this entity, or null if the content encoding is unknown

Overrides org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper.getContentLength.

Implements org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContentLength.

Doc from org.apache.http.HttpEntity.getContentLength.

Tells the length of the content, if known.

Returns:long

the number of bytes of the content, or a negative number if unknown. If the content length is known but exceeds Long.MAX_VALUE, a negative number is returned.

@Override

Overrides org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper.isChunked.

Implements org.apache.http.HttpEntity.isChunked.

Doc from org.apache.http.HttpEntity.isChunked.

Tells about chunked encoding for this entity. The primary purpose of this method is to indicate whether chunked encoding should be used when the entity is sent. For entities that are received, it can also indicate whether the entity was received with chunked encoding.

The behavior of wrapping entities is implementation dependent, but should respect the primary purpose.

Returns:boolean

true if chunked encoding is preferred for this entity, or false if it is not

Overrides org.apache.http.entity.HttpEntityWrapper.writeTo.

Implements org.apache.http.HttpEntity.writeTo.
