    44  /**
    45   * Implements the HTTP HEAD method.
    46   * <p>
    47   * The HTTP HEAD method is defined in section 9.4 of
    48   * <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
    49   * <blockquote>
    50   * The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT
    51   * return a message-body in the response. The metainformation contained
    52   * in the HTTP headers in response to a HEAD request SHOULD be identical
    53   * to the information sent in response to a GET request. This method can
    54   * be used for obtaining metainformation about the entity implied by the
    55   * request without transferring the entity-body itself. This method is
    56   * often used for testing hypertext links for validity, accessibility,
    57   * and recent modification.
    58   * </blockquote>
