This package contains convenience classes for working with REST services. It is not an attempt to provide a full functionling library like Apache HttpClient, but rather a scaled down version of the easiest and simplest and most used functionality of HTTP at the finger tips. The rationale for writing it was:

• Simpler API than Apache HttpClient
• The fact that HttpClient is dependent on Apache Commons Logging

This package is based on a class HttpURLConnection and does not depend on any other external library.
