Get the redirect URL after POST_问答_开发者_运维开发者技术经验分享

I have code that does a POST to a web form and then reads the contents. I have two problems- 1) I don't need to read the response after POSTing data- I only need the url. So I don't need the readResponse method, but the program doesn't work when I remove it; and 2) after posting, there is a redirect to another page. When I print out the URL, I get the first URL rather than the final redirected URL that I'm looking for.

So basically, my desired class would post data to a page without reading the response and instead get the URL of the page after the redirect. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
