Read from URL java
I don't know how u are using the URL class. It would have been better if post a snippet. But here is a way that works for me. See if it helps in your case:
URL url = new URL(urlPath);
URLConnection con = url.openConnection();
con.setConnectTimeout(connectTimeout);
con.setReadTimeout(readTimeout);
InputStream in = con.getInputStream();
The URL#openStream method is actually just a shortcut for openConnection().getInputStream()
. Here is the code from the URL class:
public final InputStream openStream() throws java.io.IOException {
return openConnection().getInputStream();
}
You can adjust settings in the client code as follows:
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection(); // setting timeouts conn.setConnectTimeout(connectTimeoutinMilliseconds); conn.setReadTimeout(readTimeoutinMilliseconds); InputStream in = conn.getInputStream();
Reference: URLConnection#setReadTimeout, URLConnection#setConnectTimeout
- Alternatively, you should set the
sun.net.client.defaultConnectTimeout
andsun.net.client.defaultReadTimeout
system property to a reasonable value.
