URI getRawQuery() method in Java with Examples

The getRawQuery() function is a part of URI class. The function getRawQuery() returns the raw Query of a specified URI.This function returns the exact value of Query without decoding the sequence of escaped octets if any.

Function Signature:

public String getRawQuery()

Syntax:

uri.getRawQuery()

Parameter: This function does not require any parameter
Return Type: The function returns String Type

Below programs illustrates the use of getRawQuery() function:

Example 1: Given a URI we will get the raw Query using the getRawQuery() function.




// Java program to show the 
// use of the function getRawQuery()
  
import java.net.*;
  
class Solution {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // uri  object
        URI uri = null;
  
        try {
            // create a URI
            uri = new URI("https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples?title=protocol");
  
            // get the  Query
            String Raw_Query = uri.getRawQuery();
  
            // display the URL
            System.out.println("URI = " + uri);
  
            // display the  Raw Query
            System.out.println(" Raw Query=" + Raw_Query);
        }
        // if any error occurs
        catch (URISyntaxException e) {
            // display the error
            System.out.println("URI Exception =" + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}


Output:

URI = https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples?title=protocol
 Raw Query=title=protocol

Example 2: Now we will not provide any query and use the function to get the query and see the results.




// Java program to show the 
// use of the function getRawQuery()
  
import java.net.*;
  
class Solution {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // uri  object
        URI uri = null;
  
        try {
            // create a URI
            uri = new URI("https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples");
  
            // get the  Query
            String Raw_Query = uri.getRawQuery();
  
            // display the URL
            System.out.println("URI = " + uri);
  
            // display the  Raw Query
            System.out.println(" Raw Query=" + Raw_Query);
        }
        // if any error occurs
        catch (URISyntaxException e) {
            // display the error
            System.out.println("URI Exception =" + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}


Output:

URI = https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples
 Raw Query=null

Example 3: The value returned by getQuery() and getRawQuery() is same except that all sequences of escaped octets are decoded. The getRawPath() returns the exact value of the string as provided by the user but the getQuery() function decodes the sequence of escaped octets if any.




// Java program to show the 
// use of the function getRawQuery()
  
import java.net.*;
  
class Solution {
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        // uri  object
        URI uri = null;
  
        try {
            // create a URI
            uri = new URI("https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples?title=protocol%E2%82%AC");
  
            // get the  Query
            String _Query = uri.getQuery();
  
            // display the URL
            System.out.println("URI = " + uri);
  
            // display the  Query
            System.out.println(" Query=" + _Query);
  
            // get the  Raw Query
            String Raw_Query = uri.getRawQuery();
  
            // display the Raw Query
            System.out.println(" Raw Query=" + Raw_Query);
        }
        // if any error occurs
        catch (URISyntaxException e) {
            // display the error
            System.out.println("URI Exception =" + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}


Output:

URI = https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/url-getprotocol-method-in-java-with-examples?title=protocol%E2%82%AC
 Query=title=protocol?
 Raw Query=title=protocol%E2%82%AC
