static JSONObject org.json.HTTP.toJSONObject ( String  string ) throws ParseException

static

Convert an HTTP header string into a JSONObject.

It can be a request header or a response header. A request header will contain

{
   Method: "POST" (for example),
   "Request-URI": "/" (for example),
   "HTTP-Version": "HTTP/1.1" (for example)
}

A response header will contain

{
   "HTTP-Version": "HTTP/1.1" (for example),
   "Status-Code": "200" (for example),
   "Reason-Phrase": "OK" (for example)
}

In addition, the other parameters in the header will be captured, using the HTTP field names as JSON names, so that

   Date: Sun, 26 May 2002 18:06:04 GMT
   Cookie: Q=q2=PPEAsg--; B=677gi6ouf29bn&b=2&f=s
   Cache-Control: no-cache

become

{...
   Date: "Sun, 26 May 2002 18:06:04 GMT",
   Cookie: "Q=q2=PPEAsg--; B=677gi6ouf29bn&b=2&f=s",
   "Cache-Control": "no-cache",
...}

It does no further checking or conversion. It does not parse dates. It does not do '' transforms on URLs.

Parameters

string

An HTTP header string.

Returns

A JSONObject containing the elements and attributes of the XML string.
