createURLSource

public static URLSource createURLSource(URL url)
                                 throws IOException,
                                        UnsupportedContentTypeException,
                                        UnknownContentTypeException

Create a URL source from a URI. The content format is deduced from the content-type HTTP header. The data size is inferred from the content-length HTTP header. The URL connection that is created does not specify any time out values or allow any user interaction. If more control is required over the connection, the alternative constructor should be used.

Parameters:

url - the URL to the content. The URL should reference unsealed data.

Returns:

a new URL Source instance.

Throws:

IOException - if there is an input/output error opening a stream to the URL.

UnsupportedContentTypeException - unsupported content type specified by the content-type header.

UnknownContentTypeException - the content type could not be determined as there was no content-type header returned in the response.
