android - Httpclient redirect handler

Question

I'm trying to call a web server that is using relative URL redirects for some of the calls. This of course isn't working with DefaultHttpClient as it isn't treating it as a relative URL. I've gotten as far as implementing a RedirectHandler in an attempt to catch the redirect and add in the base call but I can't work out how to get the location of the redirect.

With the following method how do I go about finding out where I am being redirected to? I can't find any fields on either response or context that have what I need and I don't know where else to look.

public URI getLocationURI(HttpResponse response, HttpContext context)

Have a look here: HttpClient 4 - how to capture last redirect URL

I would try getStatusLine() for start.
