36/**
37 * HTTP GET method.
38 * <p>
39 * The HTTP GET method is defined in section 9.3 of
40 * <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
41 * <blockquote>
42 * The GET method means retrieve whatever information (in the form of an
43 * entity) is identified by the Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers
44 * to a data-producing process, it is the produced data which shall be
45 * returned as the entity in the response and not the source text of the
46 * process, unless that text happens to be the output of the process.
47 * </blockquote>
48 * </p>
49 * <p>
50 * GetMethods will follow redirect requests from the http server by default.
51 * This behavour can be disabled by calling setFollowRedirects(false).</p>
