AIDL has nothing to do with this, other than the fact that it is also
sending information across a kernel barrier, but otherwise completely
unrelated.

Why are your requirements to use HTTP?  Is this for a class?  If so,
then read any of the hundreds of "network programming in Java"
tutorials on the internet, it is literally no different in Android,
except that you will probably do it in a service.
