Error: "The Method is undefined for the type object" android project eclipse

I'm new android development and I have been researching this for some time however I can't seem to correct the error. I have a "The Method is undefined for the type object" error on both getStatusCode() and getReasonPhrase(). Any help would be appreciated.

I get in this line an error :
HttpClient client =new MyHttpClient(getApplicationContext());
The error is : The method getApplicationContext() is undefined for the type JsonReaderPost

You should send the context of your activity when you instantiate the class:
private Context mContext;
public JsonReaderPost(Context mContext) {
this.mContext = mContext;
}
Then, you should use "mContext" instead of getApplicationContext();

It is unknown because your class doesn't extend any other Class that has a Context, so it doesn't know what that method is. Such is, for example, an Activity.
However, using getApplicationContext(), unless you really know what you're doing, is almost always wrong. This will bring undesired behaviors like Exceptions when handled not properly. You should always use the Context of the class you're handling.
You can know which classes implement Context and get more info on contexts here.

REST call using ApacheHttpClient with data and headers

I need to integrate Kii MbaaS services in one of my web application apart from the Mobile apps. I was using the Android SDK and was able to connect it. However for website using Java solution they don't have any SDK and asked me to do th operation using REST. Now I was planning to use ApacheHttpClient from a Servlet to connect to the REST services. The REST format from their docs is given below. In ApacheHttpClient I know I can pass the headers(-H) as HttpGet.addHeader("content-type", "application/json"). However I am not sure how to pass the data (-d). Can anyone help me here by pointing to any tutorial link or any sample code on how to pass data to a REST service along with headers?
The REST syntax is given below-
curl -v -X POST \
-H "content-type:application/json" \
-H "x-kii-appid:{APP_ID}" \
-H "x-kii-appkey:{APP_KEY}" \
"https://api.kii.com/api/oauth2/token" \
-d '{"username":"user_123456", "password":"123ABC"}'
Thanks in advance.
------------------------- Edit--------------------------------------------------
here is a sample java code I wrote to connect to using Apache HttpClient 4.3 library however I keep getting error as 400... can anyone pls advice?
error -
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed : HTTP

httpost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps, Consts.UTF_8));
response = httpClient.execute(httpost);
if (response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() != 200) {
throw new RuntimeException("Failed : HTTP error code : "

}

Ok I got it solved. I need to wrap up the data in json format stringentity and post it and it will work.

HTTPclient POST with problematic web site

I'm trying to retrive some data from a web site.
I wrote a java class which seems to work pretty fine with many sites but it doesn't work with this particular site, which use extensive javascript in the input fomr.
As you can see from the code I specified the input fields taking the name from the HTML source, but maybe this website doesn't accept POST request of this kind?
How can I simulate an user-interaction to retrieve the generated HTML?

HttpResponse response;

String result = null;
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
try {
postRequest = new HttpPost(url);
postRequest.setEntity((HttpEntity) new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
response = httpClient.execute(postRequest);

if(entity != null){
InputStream inputStream = entity.getContent();
result = convertStreamToString(inputStream);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
result = "We had a problem";
} finally {
httpClient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();
}
return result;
}
void ATMtravelPoller () {
ArrayList<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
String url = "http://www.atm-mi.it/it/Pagine/default.aspx";
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("ctl00$SPWebPartManager1$g_afa5adbb_5b60_4e50_8da2_212a1d36e49c$txt_address_s", "Viale romagna 1"));

params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("sf_method", "POST"));
String result = stationPoller(url, params);
saveToFile(result, "/home/rachele/Documents/atm/out4.html");
}

try{
// Create file
FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter(pos);
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream);
out.write(toFile);
//Close the output stream
out.close();
}catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any
System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
private static String convertStreamToString(InputStream is) {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
stringBuilder.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return stringBuilder.toString();
}
}

At my point of view, there could be javascript generated field with dynamic value for preventing automated code to crawl the site. Send concrete site you want to download.
