Hi everyone!

I just wanted to know if any of you had any problems using java default HttpURLConnection class. Some kind of bug that made you switch to apache commons.

Or is it just the (ugly) interface that class exposes that justifies the birth of 3rd party http lib?

Disclosure: I heard some arguments against java.net having some serious problems, but I'm finding hard to believe that a class that is part of the java core distribution still has issues after several releases of the JDK
