set the Accept-Language header for crawler in java

Question

I'd like to find the correct method to set the Accept-Language header for my crawler? I read other related answers like Getting imdb movie titles in a specific language and How to set Accept-Language header on request from applet but they didn't work for me (I get this error: "the method is undefined for type connection" Here is part of code:

String baseUrl = "http://www.imdb.com/search/title?at=0&count=250";

org.jsoup.Connection con = Jsoup.connect(baseUrl).userAgent("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.21 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1042.0 Safari/535.21");

Please help me, I am really new to java.

Thanks

In JSoup, you use the header method to set request headers. So the last line of your code will become this. I've just added line breaks for readability.

org.jsoup.Connection con = Jsoup
     .connect(baseUrl)
     .userAgent("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.21 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/19.0.1042.0 Safari/535.21")
     .header("Accept-Language", /* Put your language here */);

For example, to accept English, you'd write "en" in place of that last comment.
