Read data from web page

Let us look at sample code for reading data from a given url

//

// Create an url object

URL url = new URL("http://www.someUrl.com");

//

// Open connection to the url

URLConnection conn= url.openConnection();

//

// Open input stream to read

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(

new InputStreamReader(

conn.getInputStream()));

//

// read the content

String inputLine = null;

while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {

//

// Do something with inputLine .

}
