你可以使用Socket来实现

String host = "www.yourhost.com";
Socket socket = new Socket(host, 80);
String request = "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";
OutputStream os = socket.getOutputStream();
os.write(request.getBytes());
os.flush();

InputStream is = socket.getInputStream();
int ch;
while( (ch=is.read())!= -1)
    System.out.print((char)ch);
socket.close();    

您可以使用java.net.HttpUrlConnection。

示例(来自这里)，并进行了改进。包括在链接腐烂的情况下:

public static String executePost(String targetURL, String urlParameters) {
  HttpURLConnection connection = null;

  try {
    //Create connection
    URL url = new URL(targetURL);
    connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
    connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
    connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", 
        "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

    connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", 
        Integer.toString(urlParameters.getBytes().length));
    connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Language", "en-US");  

    connection.setUseCaches(false);
    connection.setDoOutput(true);

    //Send request
    DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream (
        connection.getOutputStream());
    wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
    wr.close();

    //Get Response  
    InputStream is = connection.getInputStream();
    BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
    StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder(); // or StringBuffer if Java version 5+
    String line;
    while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
      response.append(line);
      response.append('\r');
    }
    rd.close();
    return response.toString();
  } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    return null;
  } finally {
    if (connection != null) {
      connection.disconnect();
    }
  }
}

如果您正在使用Java 11或更新版本(Android除外)，而不是遗留的HttpUrlConnection类，您可以使用Java 11新的HTTP客户端API。

一个示例GET请求:

var uri = URI.create("https://httpbin.org/get?age=26&isHappy=true");
var client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();
var request = HttpRequest
        .newBuilder()
        .uri(uri)
        .header("accept", "application/json")
        .GET()
        .build();
var response = client.send(request, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
System.out.println(response.statusCode());
System.out.println(response.body());

同一请求异步执行:

var responseAsync = client
        .sendAsync(request, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString())
        .thenApply(HttpResponse::body)
        .thenAccept(System.out::println);
// responseAsync.join(); // Wait for completion

一个POST请求的例子:

var request = HttpRequest
        .newBuilder()
        .uri(uri)
        .version(HttpClient.Version.HTTP_2)
        .timeout(Duration.ofMinutes(1))
        .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
        .header("Authorization", "Bearer fake")
        .POST(BodyPublishers.ofString("{ title: 'This is cool' }"))
        .build();
var response = client.send(request, HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());

要以多部分(multipart/form-data)或url编码(application/x-www-form-urlencoded)格式发送表单数据，请参阅此解决方案。

有关HTTP客户端API的示例和更多信息，请参阅本文。

对于Java标准库HTTP服务器，请参阅这篇文章。

Apache HttpComponents。这两个模块的例子——HttpCore和HttpClient会让你马上开始。

并不是说HttpUrlConnection是一个糟糕的选择，HttpComponents将抽象出大量繁琐的编码。如果你真的想用最少的代码来支持大量的HTTP服务器/客户端，我推荐这样做。顺便说一下，HttpCore可以用于功能最少的应用程序(客户端或服务器)，而HttpClient用于需要支持多种身份验证方案、cookie支持等的客户端。

这里有一个通过Example Depot发送POST请求的链接::

try {
    // Construct data
    String data = URLEncoder.encode("key1", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("value1", "UTF-8");
    data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("key2", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("value2", "UTF-8");

    // Send data
    URL url = new URL("http://hostname:80/cgi");
    URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
    conn.setDoOutput(true);
    OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream());
    wr.write(data);
    wr.flush();

    // Get the response
    BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
    String line;
    while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
        // Process line...
    }
    wr.close();
    rd.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
}

如果您想发送一个GET请求，您可以稍微修改代码以满足您的需要。具体来说，您必须在URL的构造函数中添加参数。然后，还注释掉这个wr.write(data);

有一件事没有写下来，你应该注意，就是超时。特别是如果你想在WebServices中使用它，你必须设置超时，否则上面的代码将无限期地等待，或者至少等待很长时间，这可能是你不想要的。

超时设置如下conn.setReadTimeout(2000);输入参数以毫秒为单位

        URLConnection yc = yahoo.openConnection();

        String inputLine;

        while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) 
            System.out.println(inputLine);
