The com.slamd.http package contains the SLAMD HTTP client library. This library provides a number of methods for interacting with Web servers using HTTP and HTTPS via HTTP 1.1. It provides support for cookies, authentication, proxy servers, redirects, and keepalive. It also provides basic support for parsing HTML documents and can be configured to automatically retrieve associated files (e.g., images, framesets, remote stylesheets, etc.) so that it operates more like a real Web browser.
