import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;

public class URLCall extends URLConnection {

    
    URLCall(URL url3) {
        super(url3);
    }

    @Override
    public void connect() throws IOException {
        throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported yet.");
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {


        try {
            URL u1 = null;
            try {
                u1 = new URL("http://www.yahoo.com/");
            } catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
                Logger.getLogger(URLCall.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            }
            URLCall urlCall1 = new URLCall(u1);

            URLConnection yc = null;

            try {
                yc = urlCall1.url.openConnection();
                yc.setDoInput(true);

            } catch (IOException ex) {
                Logger.getLogger(URLCall.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            }
            BufferedReader in = null;
            try {
                in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(yc.getInputStream()));
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                Logger.getLogger(URLCall.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            }

            System.out.println("content encoding=" + urlCall1.getContentEncoding());
            System.out.println("content Type=" + urlCall1.getContentType());
            System.out.println("Last Modified:" + new Date(urlCall1.getLastModified()));
            System.out.println("Date:" + new Date(yc.getDate()));
            System.out.println("Class:" + urlCall1.getClass());
            System.out.println("Content length:" + urlCall1.getContentLength());
            System.out.println("query:" + urlCall1.url.getQuery());

        } catch (Exception ex) {
            Logger.getLogger(URLCall.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }

    }
}

The following is the generated output:
run:

content encoding=null
content Type=null

Praveen, next time you should first select the text to put inside a code block. Otherwise an empty code block will be added at the end of your post. I've fixed this for you this time.
