总结(并以某种方式润色和更新)之前的答案。以下三种方法实际上是等效的。(我添加了明确的超时，因为我认为这是必须的。没有人希望下载在连接丢失时永远冻结。)

public static void saveUrl1(final Path file, final URL url,
    int secsConnectTimeout, int secsReadTimeout))
    throws MalformedURLException, IOException {

    // Files.createDirectories(file.getParent()); // Optional, make sure parent directory exists
    try (BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(
         streamFromUrl(url, secsConnectTimeout,secsReadTimeout));
         OutputStream fout = Files.newOutputStream(file)) {

            final byte data[] = new byte[8192];
            int count;
            while((count = in.read(data)) > 0)
                fout.write(data, 0, count);
        }
}

public static void saveUrl2(final Path file, final URL url,
    int secsConnectTimeout, int secsReadTimeout))
    throws MalformedURLException, IOException {

    // Files.createDirectories(file.getParent()); // Optional, make sure parent directory exists
    try (ReadableByteChannel rbc = Channels.newChannel(
             streamFromUrl(url, secsConnectTimeout, secsReadTimeout)
        );
        FileChannel channel = FileChannel.open(file,
             StandardOpenOption.CREATE,
             StandardOpenOption.TRUNCATE_EXISTING,
             StandardOpenOption.WRITE)
        ) {

        channel.transferFrom(rbc, 0, Long.MAX_VALUE);
    }
}

public static void saveUrl3(final Path file, final URL url,
    int secsConnectTimeout, int secsReadTimeout))
    throws MalformedURLException, IOException {

    // Files.createDirectories(file.getParent()); // Optional, make sure parent directory exists
    try (InputStream in = streamFromUrl(url, secsConnectTimeout,secsReadTimeout) ) {
        Files.copy(in, file, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);
    }
}

public static InputStream streamFromUrl(URL url,int secsConnectTimeout,int secsReadTimeout) throws IOException {
    URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
    if(secsConnectTimeout>0)
        conn.setConnectTimeout(secsConnectTimeout*1000);
    if(secsReadTimeout>0)
        conn.setReadTimeout(secsReadTimeout*1000);
    return conn.getInputStream();
}

我没有发现明显的差异，在我看来都是对的。它们既安全又高效。(速度的差异似乎无关紧要——我从本地服务器写入180 MB到SSD磁盘的时间大约在1.2到1.5秒之间波动)。它们不需要外部库。所有这些都可以使用任意大小和(根据我的经验)HTTP重定向。

此外，如果没有找到资源(通常是404错误)，所有抛出FileNotFoundException，如果DNS解析失败则抛出java.net.UnknownHostException;其他IOException对应传输过程中的错误。

import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;

public class filedown {
    public static void download(String address, String localFileName) {
        OutputStream out = null;
        URLConnection conn = null;
        InputStream in = null;

        try {
            URL url = new URL(address);
            out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(localFileName));
            conn = url.openConnection();
            in = conn.getInputStream();
            byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

            int numRead;
            long numWritten = 0;

            while ((numRead = in.read(buffer)) != -1) {
                out.write(buffer, 0, numRead);
                numWritten += numRead;
            }

            System.out.println(localFileName + "\t" + numWritten);
        } 
        catch (Exception exception) { 
            exception.printStackTrace();
        } 
        finally {
            try {
                if (in != null) {
                    in.close();
                }
                if (out != null) {
                    out.close();
                }
            } 
            catch (IOException ioe) {
            }
        }
    }

    public static void download(String address) {
        int lastSlashIndex = address.lastIndexOf('/');
        if (lastSlashIndex >= 0 &&
        lastSlashIndex < address.length() - 1) {
            download(address, (new URL(address)).getFile());
        } 
        else {
            System.err.println("Could not figure out local file name for "+address);
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++) {
            download(args[i]);
        }
    }
}

在java.net.http.HttpClient上使用授权的解决方案:

HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();

HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder()
        .GET()
        .header("Accept", "application/json")
        // .header("Authorization", "Basic ci5raG9kemhhZXY6NDdiYdfjlmNUM=") if you need
        .uri(URI.create("https://jira.google.ru/secure/attachment/234096/screenshot-1.png"))
        .build();

HttpResponse<InputStream> response = client.send(request, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofInputStream());

try (InputStream in = response.body()) {
    Files.copy(in, Paths.get(target + "screenshot-1.png"), StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING);
}

可以使用Apache的HttpComponents而不是Commons IO来下载文件。这段代码允许您根据URL在Java中下载文件，并将其保存到特定的目的地。

public static boolean saveFile(URL fileURL, String fileSavePath) {

    boolean isSucceed = true;

    CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClients.createDefault();

    HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(fileURL.toString());
    httpGet.addHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0");
    httpGet.addHeader("Referer", "https://www.google.com");

    try {
        CloseableHttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
        HttpEntity fileEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();

        if (fileEntity != null) {
            FileUtils.copyInputStreamToFile(fileEntity.getContent(), new File(fileSavePath));
        }

    } catch (IOException e) {
        isSucceed = false;
    }

    httpGet.releaseConnection();

    return isSucceed;
}

与单行代码相比:

FileUtils.copyURLToFile(fileURL, new File(fileSavePath),
                        URLS_FETCH_TIMEOUT, URLS_FETCH_TIMEOUT);

这段代码将使您对进程有更多的控制，不仅可以指定超时，还可以指定User-Agent和Referer值，这对许多网站来说都是至关重要的。

就我个人而言，我发现Apache的HttpClient在这方面比我需要做的任何事情都有能力。这里有一个关于使用HttpClient的很棒的教程

你可以在一行中使用netloader for Java:

new NetFile(new File("my/zips/1.zip"), "https://example.com/example.zip", -1).load(); // Returns true if succeed, otherwise false.
