Is there an Java library for sending binary data over HTTP, HTTP Tunneling?

Question

I would like to send quite large chunks of data in a binary format over HTTP, also called HTTP Tunneling.

I would like to use this technique using Java for a few Java Swing applications and maybe an Android application. Is there any good Java libraries for HTTP Tunneling?

Answer 1

JHttpTunnel

Answer 2

Here is another implementation in Jodd library. There is base implementation named HttpTunnel. Here is a simple example how to use it: https://github.com/oblac/tools/blob/master/src/jodd/tools/http/TinyTunnel.java

Answer 3

HttpURLConnection. No need for another library.

Answer 4

You can certainly use Apache Commons HTTP library to send HTTP.
