I need to obtain the input stream to a HTTPS URL eg. https://baseurl.com/mypdfgenerated.php?param=somevalue. In order to access this URL I need to get through the login page (eg. https://baseurl.com/login.php) by supplying BODY parameters:
user_name, web_pwd and submit_login
I'm assuming the only way to successfully access the first URL is by a POST to the /login.php followed by storing the cookies and then reusing the cookie-session-ID in the next GET request; if this is the correct approach then could someone please share a solution with the correct/recent libraries?
