Method Detail

setHeader

void setHeader(String header,
             String value)

Set a header that will be included in all requests. If header of the same name was previously set, then replace the previous header value.

Parameters:

header - the name of the header

value - the value of the header, if null, then unset that header.

setPrivateHeader

void setPrivateHeader(String header,
                    String value)

Set a header that will be included in all requests and do not log the value. Useful for values that are sensitive or related to security. If header of the same name was previously set, then replace the previous header value.

Parameters:

header - the name of the header

value - the value of the header. If null, then unset that header.

setAuthToken

void setAuthToken(AuthTokenFactory.AuthToken authToken)

Set authentication token to be used on subsequent requests created via getRequest( com.google.gdata.client.Service.GDataRequest.RequestType, URL, ContentType). An IllegalArgumentException is thrown if an auth token of the wrong type is passed, or if authentication is not supported.

Parameters:

authToken - Authentication token.

getRequest

Service.GDataRequest getRequest(Service.GDataRequest.RequestType type,
                              URL requestUrl,
                              ContentType contentType)
                                throws IOException,
                                       ServiceException

Creates a new GDataRequest instance of the specified RequestType.

Clients should be sure to call Service.GDataRequest.end() on the returned request once they have finished using it.

Parameters:

type - the request type

requestUrl - the target URL for the request

contentType - the contentType of the data being provided in the request body. May be null if no data is provided.

Throws:

IOException

ServiceException

getRequest

Service.GDataRequest getRequest(Query query,
                              ContentType contentType)
                                throws IOException,
                                       ServiceException

Creates a new GDataRequest instance for querying a service. This method pushes the query parameters down to the factory method instead of serializing them as a URL. Some factory implementations prefer to get access to query parameters in their original form, not as a URL.

Clients should be sure to call Service.GDataRequest.end() on the returned request once they have finished using it.

Parameters:

query - the query associated with the request

contentType - this parameter is unused but remains for backwards compatibility.

Throws:

IOException

ServiceException
