This one:
public class URLTest {
public static void main(String[] arguments) {
String myurl = "http://www.uni-dortmund.de";
try {
java.io.BufferedReader reader = new java.io.BufferedReader
( new java.io.InputStreamReader((new java.net.URL(myurl)).openStream()) );
for (String curLine = reader.readLine(); curLine != null;
curLine = reader.readLine())
System.out.println( curLine );
reader.close();
} catch (java.io.IOException ex) { System.out.println(ex); }
}
}
is 11 lines (text is wrapped here to make 13), took about 4 minutes to write
and test. It was quite straightforward.
BTW the Java 1.4 API is online here:
