Title Body

I am using commons HttpClient to make an http call to a Spring servlet. I need to add a few parameters in the query string. So I do the following: HttpRequestBase request = new HttpGet(url); HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams(); params.setParameter("key1", "value1"); params.setParameter("key2", "value2"); params.setParameter("key3", "value3"); request.setParams(params); HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(); httpClient.execute(request); However when i try to read the parameter in the servlet using ((ServletRequestAttributes) RequestContextHolder.currentRequestAttributes()).getRequest().getParameter("key"); it returns null. In fact the parameterMap is completely empty. When I manually append the parameters to the url before creating the HttpGet request, the parameters are available in the servlet. Same when I hit the servlet from the browser using the URL with queryString appended. What's the error here? In httpclient 3.x, GetMethod had a setQueryString() method to append the querystring. What's the equivalent in 4.x?
