37  * HTTP GET method.
38  * <p>
39  * The HTTP GET method is defined in section 9.3 of
40  * <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
41  * <blockquote>
42  * The GET method means retrieve whatever information (in the form of an
43  * entity) is identified by the Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers
44  * to a data-producing process, it is the produced data which shall be
45  * returned as the entity in the response and not the source text of the
46  * process, unless that text happens to be the output of the process.
47  * </blockquote>
48  * </p>
49  * <p>
50  * GetMethods will follow redirect requests from the http server by default.
51  * This behavour can be disabled by calling setFollowRedirects(false).</p>
