/**
 * HTTP GET method.

 * The HTTP GET method is defined in section 9.3 of
 * <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
 * <blockquote>
 * The GET method means retrieve whatever information (in the form of an
 * entity) is identified by the Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers
 * to a data-producing process, it is the produced data which shall be
 * returned as the entity in the response and not the source text of the
 * process, unless that text happens to be the output of the process.
 * </blockquote>

 * <p>
 * GetMethods will follow redirect requests from the http server by default.
 * This behavour can be disabled by calling setFollowRedirects(false).</p>
