"illegal Characters" In Url For Httpget In Android Get Double-encoded

I am trying to find a solution to this the whole evening now... I write an app which requests data from a web server. The Server answers in JSON format. Everything works well excep

Solution 1:

Update: Sorry, HttpParams isn't meant for request parameters but for configuringHttpClient.

On Android, you might want to use Uri.Builder, like suggested in this other SO answer:

Uriuri=newUri.Builder()
    .scheme("http")
    .authority("example.com")
    .path("someservlet")
    .appendQueryParameter("param1", foo)
    .appendQueryParameter("param2", bar)
    .build();

HttpGetrequest=newHttpGet(uri.toString());

// This looks very tempting but does NOT set request parameters// but just HttpClient configuration parameters:// HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams();// params.setParameter("q", query);// request.setParams(params);HttpResponseresponse= defaultClient.execute(request);
Stringjson= EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());

Outside of Android, your best bet is building the query string manually (with all the encoding hassles) or finding something similar to Android's Uri.Builder.
