仅下载Cocoa中的HTTP标头

我正在尝试将我的一个Android应用程序移植到Mac OS X上本地工作。

对于应用程序的初始化,它需要连接到服务器并只读取服务器响应的标头。服务器(第三方服务器)将响应82274字节的数据,但对我来说唯一有用的数据是标题;特别是我需要读取会话cookie并检索其值。这意味着所有其他数据都是多余的。

通过谷歌搜索,唯一正在寻找的回应如下:

// Create the request.
    NSMutableURLRequest *theRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.grooveshark.com/"]];
    [theRequest setHTTPMethod:@"HEAD"];
    [theRequest setValue:@"MySpecialUserAgent/1.0" forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"];
    [theRequest setTimeoutInterval:15.0];
    [theRequest setCachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringCacheData];

然而,这仍会下载整个页面。

有人能指出我正确的方向吗?

让我们看看如果我们点击该网址会发生什么。

因此www.grooveshark.com重定向到grooveshark.com。让我们看看该页面是否正确尊重HEAD个请求。

看起来不错。我怀疑你的请求在重定向后会回到GET。看起来Chris Suter遇到了同样的问题并提供了一个示例解决方案:http://sutes.co.uk/2009/12/nsurlconnection-using-head-met.html

将来您可能希望尝试通过本地代理运行请求,以便在飞行中看到它们。这可能会显示您向HEAD发出了www.grooveshark.com个请求,然后是GETgrooveshark.com
