I’m working on a project that requires me to find the coordinates of some shops on Google Maps. I already have the address of each shop.<\/p>\n
I have played a little with the Google Geocoding APIs and I think they are what I need: all my code needs to do is connect to the DBMS, retrieve item_id and address, generate a valid URL for the geocoding API and process the JSON data it will get.<\/p>\n
I don’t understand why, but the URL I generate works in my browsers (Chrome 23 & latest Safari, OS X) but won’t work in Jsoup. I have looked at the source of the page in Chrome, and it looks like it is perfectly valid HTML. So what’s Jsoup doing wrong?<\/p>\n
Code snippet (runnable, will give you the same exception I get):<\/p>\n
import java.io.IOException;\nimport org.jsoup.Jsoup;\nimport org.jsoup.nodes.Document;\n\npublic class RandomClass {\n public static void main(String args[]) {\n Document doc = null;\n try {\n String url = \"http:\/\/maps.googleapis.com\/maps\/api\/geocode\/json?address=0+164+W+75th+St,+New%20York,+NY+10024&sensor=false\";\n\n String ua = \"Mozilla\/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_7_5) AppleWebKit\/537.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome\/24.0.1312.56 Safari\/537.17\";\n doc = Jsoup.connect(url).timeout(60 * 1000).userAgent(ua).get();\n } catch (IOException e) {\n e.printStackTrace();\n }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n}<\/p>\n
throws<\/p>\n
