Hi, all
As the requirements, my server need pass a xml file to the customer server. It means my server will write a xml file to the customer's machine. My server have parsed a customer xml file by given url like "http://..../thexml.xml". Now the servere will pass the result in a xml type. If the customer gives a url in http or ftp. Can I do that?
Thanks in advance.
Hai,
One of the approach that you can follow is that, you can create a client side program on your end. Write a servlet that listens on your client machine. Make a URLConnection from your machine to the servlet and pass the xml file.
Client code
--
URL url = new URL("http://XXXXXXXX");
System.out.println("Opening Connection");
HttpURLConnection uc = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
System.out.println("Connection Opened");
if (!uc.getDoOutput())
{
uc.setDoOutput( true );
}
if (!uc.getDoInput())
{
uc.setDoInput( true );
}
uc.setRequestMethod( "POST" );
uc.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
uc.setRequestProperty( "Cache-Control", "no-cache" );
create an output stream and write data to it
create an input stream to receive data from servlet.
Servlet
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
InputStreamReader istream = new InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream());
int c;
String readStr = "";
while ((c = (int)istream.read()) != -1)
{
System.out.print((char)c);
readStr += (char)c;
}
istream.close();
com.ls.staff.XMLConverter converter = new com.ls.staff.XMLConverter();
try
{
converter.parse(readStr);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1252");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>ConnectionServlet</title>");
out.println("<meta HTTP-EQUIV=\"Content-Type\" CONTENT=\"text/html; charset=WINDOWS-1252\">");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<body>");
out.println("</body></html>");
out.close();
}
Hope this code help you.
