HttpURLConnection wire logging in Android

Question

I'm trying to get all the headers for request/response in my logcat. Seems there is no easy way with HttpURLConnection as it is with org.apache.http.

According to this blog you can do:

sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.level = ALL

Seems this was removed from Android implementation for HttpURLConnection. Is there any easy way to sniff requests/responses on logcat?

Answer 1

This is something you can easily do yourself:

private static void logConnection(HttpURLConnection httpConnection) throws IOException {
    int status = httpConnection.getResponseCode();
    Log.d("logConnection", "status: " + status);
    for (Map.Entry<String, List<String>> header : httpConnection.getHeaderFields().entrySet()) {
        Log.d("logConnection", header.getKey() + "=" + header.getValue());
    }
}
