(Android™) Get Response Header for Method that does not Return HttpResponse Object

Demonstrates how to get the response header and individual response header fields for a method that does not return an HTTP response object. (If a method returns an HHTTP response object, then the response header information should be obtained from the response object.)

    // Here's a sample HTTP response header:

    // Server: nginx
    // Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 13:13:02 GMT
    // Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
    // Transfer-Encoding: chunked
    // Connection: keep-alive
    // Vary: Accept-Encoding
    // ETag: W/"5f7371f4-1683"

    // We can load it into a Chilkat MIME object to get header field values:
    CkMime mime = new CkMime();

    boolean success = mime.LoadMime(http.lastResponseHeader());
    if (success == false) {
        Log.i(TAG, mime.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Get MIME header field values using Chilkat MIME...
    Log.i(TAG, "----");
    Log.i(TAG, "ETag: " + mime.getHeaderField("ETag"));

  }

  static {
      System.loadLibrary("chilkat");

      // Note: If the incorrect library name is passed to System.loadLibrary,
      // then you will see the following error message at application startup:
      //"The application <your-application-name> has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
