httpclient 4 how to get bytes

Question

    HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("http://www.google.com/"); 

    System.out.println("executing request " + httpget.getURI());

    // Create a response handler
    ResponseHandler<String> responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler();
    String responseBody = httpclient.execute(httpget, responseHandler);

this will get responseBody as "string" , how to get btye[] with httpclient.execute(..) ? the reason i want to get byte[] is because i want to write to some other outputstream

Answer 1

You can use the responseBody.getBytes() to get byte[].
