     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>
