Here I am posting the JSON data using HttpClient. But I am not able to read the data on the other application. When I do request.getParameter("username")
, it returns me null. Both my applications are deployed on the same server. Please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
String username = request.getParameter("username");
String password = request.getParameter("password");
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost postRequest = new HttpPost("http://localhost:8080/AuthenticationService/UserIdentificationServlet");
postRequest.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
StringEntity input = new StringEntity("{\"username\":\""+username+"\"}");
input.setContentType("application/json");
postRequest.setEntity(input);
HttpResponse postResponse = httpClient.execute(postRequest);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader((postResponse.getEntity().getContent())));
String output;
System.out.println("Output from Server .... \n");
while ((output = br.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(output);
}
httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
}
