google app engine for java- using low level API to fetch data- some difficulties

In a Google App Engine for Java web app, I am trying to use the low level api to invoke an XML RPC ...After looking at the docs, I figured out the following code to connect using low level API-the reason why I want to use Low Level API is so that I can set the timeout value myself--

         String mrtime="120";
         java.lang.Double maxresponsetime;
         maxresponsetime = Double.valueOf(mrtime).doubleValue();
         HTTPRequest req=  new  HTTPRequest(url, HTTPMethod.GET, disallowTruncate().setDeadline(maxresponsetime));
         HTTPResponse response= com.google.appengine.api.urlfetch.URLFetchServiceFactory.getURLFetchService().fetch(req);
         String line="";
         String resp="";
         resp=new String(response.getContent(), "UTF-8");

The above code is suitable for a scenario where the remote URL is accessed by GAE...However I have to also send an XML message containing name of function as well as input parameters (these are stored in variable named 'message')... How do I send that message to the remote URL, and after that obtain the response?

You should post the call method and parameters instead of GET. The method name and parameters go as XML.

See this http://xmlrpc.scripting.com/spec.html
