How do I add AsyncTask in HttpURLConnection?
I’m setting up a server connection and my problem is that I need to put an AsyncTask
on my code because it doesn’t work on sdk version 10
. I don’t want to use StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.
public class TestConnection extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle cbundle) {
super.onCreate(cbundle);
ConnectivityManager aConnectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo aNetworkInfo = aConnectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
if (aNetworkInfo != null && aNetworkInfo.isConnected()){
Toast.makeText(this, "Internet Connected", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}else{
Toast.makeText(this, "Internet Connection Timeout", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
URL aURL;
/* Will be filled and displayed later. */
String aString = null;
/* We will show the data we read in a TextView. */
TextView aTextView = new TextView(this);
try {
/* Define the URL we want to load data from. */
aURL = new URL(
"http://url");
/* Open a connection to that URL. */
final HttpURLConnection aHttpURLConnection = (HttpURLConnection) aURL.openConnection();
/* Define InputStreams to read from the URLConnection. */
InputStream aInputStream = aHttpURLConnection.getInputStream();
BufferedInputStream aBufferedInputStream = new BufferedInputStream(
aInputStream);
/* Read bytes to the Buffer until there is nothing more to read(-1) */
ByteArrayBuffer aByteArrayBuffer = new ByteArrayBuffer(50);
int current = 0;
while ((current = aBufferedInputStream.read()) != -1) {
aByteArrayBuffer.append((byte) current);
}
/* Convert the Bytes read to a String. */
aString = new String(aByteArrayBuffer.toByteArray());
} catch (Exception aException) {
/* On any Error we want to display it. */
aString = aException.getMessage();
}
/* Show the String on the GUI. */
aTextView.setText(aString);
this.setContentView(aTextView);
}
}
Solution
private class ConnectionTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String>{
@Override
protected byte[] doInBackground(String... urls) {
try {
aURL = new URL(
urls[0]);
/* Open a connection to that URL. */
final HttpURLConnection aHttpURLConnection = (HttpURLConnection) aURL.openConnection();
/* Define InputStreams to read from the URLConnection. */
InputStream aInputStream = aHttpURLConnection.getInputStream();
BufferedInputStream aBufferedInputStream = new BufferedInputStream(
aInputStream);
/* Read bytes to the Buffer until there is nothing more to read(-1) */
ByteArrayBuffer aByteArrayBuffer = new ByteArrayBuffer(50);
int current = 0;
while ((current = aBufferedInputStream.read()) != -1) {
aByteArrayBuffer.append((byte) current);
}
/* Convert the Bytes read to a String. */
aString = new String(aByteArrayBuffer.toByteArray()); } catch (IOException e) {
Log.d(TAG, e.toString());
}
return aString;
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
result is what you got from your connection
aTextView.setText(result);
}
}
How to call it:
ConnectionTask task = new ConnectionTask();
String[] params = new String[2];
params[0] = url;
params[1] = somethingelseifneeded;
task.execute(params);
