In Java, how can I construct an HTTP request message to get a resource specified by a request URI that a user inputs after I’ve opened up a socket to connect with a server?
If anyone could just point me to an article with the general tools I would need, that would be cool too. Thank you!
The best low-level reference is the HTTP/1.1 Specification, which describes in detail all possible aspects of an HTTP request message.
If you’re not actually interested in building the request yourself, the java.net.URL class contains everything you need.
