I’m developing a Java package that makes basic HTTP requests (GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE). Right now, I’m having it just print the output of the request. I would like to store it in a field, but I’m not sure if String supports large amounts of text. Is there a data type for large amounts of text, or is there a reasonable alternative to it? Right now, because I’m just printing it, I can’t do anything with the data that is returned (like parse it, if it’s JSON).

Any ideas would be helpful.

Edit: The code is online on GitHub.
