Inherited Methods

From class org.apache.http.entity.AbstractHttpEntity

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.

From interface org.apache.http.HttpEntity

abstract void	consumeContent() TODO: The name of this method is misnomer.
abstract InputStream	getContent() Creates a new InputStream object of the entity.
abstract Header	getContentEncoding() Obtains the Content-Encoding header, if known.
abstract long	getContentLength() Tells the length of the content, if known.
abstract Header	getContentType() Obtains the Content-Type header, if known.
abstract boolean	isChunked() Tells about chunked encoding for this entity.
abstract boolean	isRepeatable() Tells if the entity is capable to produce its data more than once.
abstract boolean	isStreaming() Tells whether this entity depends on an underlying stream.
abstract void	writeTo(OutputStream outstream) Writes the entity content to the output stream.

Public Constructors

public BasicHttpEntity ()

Added in API level 1

Creates a new basic entity. The content is initially missing, the content length is set to a negative number.

Public Methods

public void consumeContent ()

Added in API level 1

Does not consume anything. The default implementation does nothing if isStreaming returns false, and throws an exception if it returns true. This removes the burden of implementing an empty method for non-streaming entities.

Throws

IOException

public InputStream getContent ()

Added in API level 1

Obtains the content, once only.

Returns

the content, if this is the first call to this method since setContent has been called

Throws

IllegalStateException	if the content has been obtained before, or has not yet been provided

public long getContentLength ()

Added in API level 1

public boolean isRepeatable ()

Added in API level 1

Tells that this entity is not repeatable.

Returns

false

public boolean isStreaming ()

Added in API level 1

public void setContent (InputStream instream)

Added in API level 1

Specifies the content.

Parameters

instream	the stream to return with the next call to `getContent`

public void setContentLength (long len)

Added in API level 1

Specifies the length of the content.

Parameters

len	the number of bytes in the content, or a negative number to indicate an unknown length

public void writeTo (OutputStream outstream)

Added in API level 1

Throws

IOException
