Executing a HTTP POST Request with HttpClient

This code executes a HTTP POST request with org.apache.http.client.HttpClient. Could be used in combination with "Non-Blocking Web Requests".

• public void postData() {
      // Create a new HttpClient and Post Header
      HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
      HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(POST_URL);
  
      try {
          // Add your data
          List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
          nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Username", "test_user"));
          nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Password", "123456"));
          httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
  
          // Execute HTTP Post Request
          HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
          
      } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
          // TODO Auto-generated catch block
      } catch (IOException e) {
          // TODO Auto-generated catch block
      }
  }
