HttpUrlConnection url length

843790Jan 19 2010 — edited Jan 20 2010
Does anyone know the maximum length (chars) that a HttpUrlConnection url can have when using a GET?

I am restricted by source code out of my control which is using the GET and have no option of sending a POST, and have seem some threads suggesting that for IE the maximum a URL can have is 2048 chars, just wondering if anyone knows if there is a similar restriction when using HttpUrlConnection.

Thanks in advance!

Peter
