How to get a binary file from a remote php script response?

Question

I\'m calling a script that gives me a binary file (12345.cl), with binary data. The script is done, and it\'s working, if I paste it on the navigator I get the binary file.

You can use following code:

public void decodeStream( String mURL, String ofile ) throws Exception {
    InputStream in = null;
    FileOutputStream out = null;
    try {
        URL url = new URL(mURL);
        URLConnection urlConn = url.openConnection();
        in = urlConn.getInputStream();
        out = new FileOutputStream(ofile);
        int c;
        byte[] b = new byte[1024];
        while ((c = in.read(b)) != -1)
            out.write(b, 0, c);
    } finally {
        if (in != null)
            in.close();
        if (out != null)
            out.close();
    }
}
