      • getName

        public String getName()
        Description copied from class: Header
        Returns the name of the header, as it would canonically appear within an HTTP message.

        getName in class Header
        Returns:

      • getValues

        public List<String> getValues()
        Description copied from class: Header
        Returns the header as a list of strings. If the header has no values then it must return an empty list, never null. Each String should represent the value component of the key-value pair that makes up the HTTP header - as such, for some Header implementations each String in this List may contain multiple token-separated values.

        The List returned from this method should not be expected to be mutable. However, some subclasses of Header may choose to implement it as such.

        Specified by:
        getValues in class Header
        Returns:
        The header as a non-null list of string values. Can be an empty list.
