gnu.java.net.protocol.http.Connection.sendRequest() does not handle situation
where a URL like "http://www.apache.org"; (without trailing slash) is specified.
For the attached example, the following is executed via Sun Java:
[ken@deviation spider]$ /usr/j2sdk1.4.2_01/bin/javac test.java
[ken@deviation spider]$ java test apache.org
Retrieveing: http://apache.org/
Got: 8613 bytes
Retrieveing: http://apache.org
Got: 8613 bytes
When compiled and run with GCJ, the following happens:
[ken@deviation spider]$ CLASSPATH=/opt/gcc/share/java/libgcj-3.5.0.jar
/opt/gcc/bin/gcj -ggdb -O --main=test test.java -o test &&
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc/lib ./test apache.org
Retrieveing: http://apache.org/
Got: 8613 bytes
Retrieveing: http://apache.org
Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Server reply was unparseable:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
at gnu.java.net.protocol.http.Connection.receiveReply()
(/opt/gcc/lib/libgcj.so.6.0.0)
at gnu.java.net.protocol.http.Connection.connect() (/opt/gcc/lib/libgcj.so.6.0.0)
at gnu.java.net.protocol.http.Connection.getInputStream()
(/opt/gcc/lib/libgcj.so.6.0.0)
at test.main(java.lang.String[]) (/home/ken/workspace/spider/test.java:27)
The server-reply-unparseable error is due to the fact that the request was sent
out as "GET HTTP/1.1", and the webserver just sends back an HTMLified error
page sans the HTTP response headers.
What GCJ should be doing in this case is sending the request as "GET / HTTP/1.1"
and not "GET HTTP/1.0". One could probably get caught up in the argument
whether the original URL is syntactically correct, but the Sun implementation
works as expected, so the GCJ one should probably try to emulate that behaviour.
