Copying an image from url using java

Question

I am trying to download an image from URL. I use the Apache Commons library:

org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils
                .copyURLToFile(
                        new URL(
                                "https://lh3.ggpht.com/AXYMUV5cpne2vE9U3X8x87HgrbwijwiG50_yOnehU2MUPKDoJky-BKFOPZzZ07Pug8U=h230"),
                        new File("test.png"));

While opening the image it says not an PNG file. Is this a good way to download images from url to local?

Updated . Thankyou guys for your answers i undestand that i need to get the connection.getContentType(); and then save it as jpg or png as it is.

Answer 1

if you check the url, It is JPEG file. Try to execute program after renaming file name to test.jpeg..

Answer 2

Checking for the content type see this SO Question. Then use this to save the file to the right type.
