Question

I am implementing httpclient response handler. The call which is being made is post like this

result = httpclient.execute(httppost, responsehandler);

now i want to implement my responsehandler. so that i can fetch the status code of my response. I am only interested in status code i.e. 200, 404, 403 and then i want to send this response as int value back

something like

public class MyResponseHandler implements ResponseHandler<Integer> {

    public Integer handleResponse(HttpResponse respons) throws ClientProtocolException, IOException {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return 0;
    }

Now the problem is, i don’t see any response.getStatusCode() method in response object. How to get the status code of my WS call?

Answer 1

Use response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode().

• HttpResponse#getStatusLine()
• StatusLine#getStatusCode()
