How do I get the URL for a Java Jersey Client request?

Question

Using Jersey in Java I have a response object

Client c=Client.create();
WebResource r = c.resource("http://example.com/path");

MultivaluedMap<String, String> params = new MultivaluedMapImpl();
    params.add("param1", value);

r=r.path(getQualifiersByPromoServicePath).queryParams(params);

ClientResponse response = r.accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE).get(ClientResponse.class);

How can I get the url used to make the request? (for debug purposes) i.e. i want to get the string "http://example.com/path?param1=value" ?

Answer 1

Use a Logging Filter and direct it's output to System.out for debugging purposes.

Right after instantiating your client add the following line:

c.addFilter(new LoggingFilter(System.out));

Answer 2

Have you tried r.getURI();? Should be what you're looking for...
