I'M testing a site that supports HTTP/2,like this, and I try to use okhttp to send the request:

OkHttpClient okHttpClient = new OkHttpClient();

Request request = new Request.Builder()
        .url("https://www.google.it")
        .build();


okHttpClient.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() {
    @Override
    public void onFailure(Request request, IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    @Override
    public void onResponse(Response response) throws IOException {
        Log.d("TestHttp", "OkHttp-Selected-Protocol: " + response.header("OkHttp-Selected-Protocol"));
        Log.d("TestHttp", "Response code is " + response.code());
    }
});

In the log I got something like this:

OkHttp-Selected-Protocol: http/1.1

The okhttpClient chose to use http/1.1, how can I force it to use HTTP/2?

Okhttp 2.5+ only support http/2 above 5.0+ via ALPN.

but you can modify the source code to support http/2 above 4.0+ via NPN.
