Database Develop

Badly confused with AsyncTask .. someone please help out .. ty

Am creating a form application which allows users to send a message using http POST request..Am getting a android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException while running my program. I am fairly new to android dev. Can someone help me by rewriting the network related operation in AsyncTask. If someone can rewrite, i can learn how exactly network tasks can be done using Async. Ty
Code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
EditText msgTextField;
Button sendButton;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
//make message text field object
msgTextField = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.msgTextField);
//make button object
sendButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.sendButton);
}
public void send(View v)
{
//get message from message box
String msg = msgTextField.getText().toString();
//check whether the msg empty or not
if(msg.length()>0) {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("localhost");
try {
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", "01"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", msg));
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
httpclient.execute(httppost);
msgTextField.setText(""); //reset the message text field
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),"Successfully Booked!!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} else {
//display message if text field is empty
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),"All fields are required",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}

any help ??

Hello,
Make a copy of the send(View v) method and name it sendAsync(View v, EditText msgbox).
Like this:
Code:
public Exception sendAsync(View v, EditText msgbox)
{
[B] HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("localhost");[/B]
try {
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", "01"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", msgbox.getText().toString()));
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
httpclient.execute(httppost);
return null;
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
return e;
} catch (IOException e) {
return e;
}
}
Next, modify the original send(View v) method like this:
Code:
public void send(View v)
{
//get message from message box
String msg = msgTextField.getText().toString();
//check whether the msg empty or not
if(msg.length()>0) {
MyAsyncTask mAsync = new MyAsyncTask(v, getBaseContext(), msgTextField);
mAsync.execute();
} else {
//display message if text field is empty
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),"All fields are required",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
You can add the below code inside your activity class (outside the onCreate method)
Code:
private class MyAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
View v;
Context context;
EditText msgbox;
Exception e = null;
public MyAsyncTask(View v_, Conext context_, EditText msgbox_){
this.v = v_;
this.context = context_;
this.msgbox = msgbox_;
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
//Background operation in a separate thread
//Write here your code to run in the background thread
this.e = sendAsync(v, msgbox);
return null;
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
//Called on Main UI Thread. Executed after the Background operation, allows you to have access to the UI
if(e==null){
//Successful
msgbox.setText(""); //reset the message text field
Toast.makeText(context,"Successfully Booked!!",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
//Called on Main UI Thread. Executed before the Background operation, allows you to have access to the UI
}
@Override
protected void onProgressUpdate(Void... values) {
//Called on Main UI Thread
}
}
However, HttpClient is deprecated for API Level 22 and above, so you should use HttpURLConnection instead. This may help you out for using HttpURLConnection via POST or GET Method.
Now, the doInBackground method, runs in a background thread, automatically created for you, and so we send the data from there, for not crashing the UI (User Interface) of the Android App. If you want, however, to access some UI components, you can do it in the onPostExecute (it is executed after the doInBackground completes) or in the onPreExecute (it is executed before the doInBackground begins). To learn more about the AsyncTask class, check here.
AsyncTask can be used and for other purposes other than sending data over the Internet. In general, you create a class extending the AsyncTask, pass any parameters that you are going to use in the background thread (but not UI components like EditText, you can pass them though, but use them in the onPreExecute or onPostExecute methods, and not in the doInBackground method), and do the stuff you want to run in the background thread inside the doInBackground method. That way, heavy(time consuming) computations or tasks like sending data over the Internet does not make your UI to crash, meaning that the user can press any buttons (for example) without lag or without waiting for the background task to finish.

i tried .. it didnt work for me .. can u give the full code for this please ?

Thanks bro

I just made a correction on the sendAsync method. It should be as follows (I have also updated my initial post):
Code:
public Exception sendAsync(View v, EditText msgbox)
{
[B] HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("localhost");[/B]
try {
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", "01"));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", msgbox.getText().toString()));
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
httpclient.execute(httppost);
return null;
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
return e;
} catch (IOException e) {
return e;
}
}
(Replace "localhost" with the actual URL that will handle the POST HTTP request). Also if you are on a local network (LAN), and trying to access the localhost of your PC that is connected to the same LAN as your Android smartphone, then, you should find the local internal IP of your computer, e.g. 192.168.1.1 (you can find that from the command prompt by typing: ipconfig). It's the IPv4 Address on your ethernet or wifi (whatever connection your PC has to the router).
Also make sure that your firewall does not block the connection.
Hope it works. What is the error that you get?

try using volley library for http requests .just a few bunch of line. no need of using async tasks.it will handle it automatically

Since am new to this whole thing, i wanted to learn with this. It was the only tutorial project i could see. Its been depreciated, but still for learning purpose i wanted to execute it. Still no success.

App lags and freeze badly.

is it because of many operations executing from main UI ?
In my app i just have a splash screen and a main activity. In the main thread i have three EditText boxes and a spinner with a string array. On clicking the Button, input from three EditText and spinner selection is posted to my mysql database. For the button click network operation, i used Volley since its east and i dont have to use AsyncTask which am not familiar with.
Apart from this, on entering the main UI .. app first check for network connectivity using ConnectivityManager class. After onClick app checks for empty/invalid imputs using TextUtils.
Now the problem is that when i run my app, its very slow and taking upto 65mb of RAM. IS something wrong with my code. Should i run something else as AsynTask ? Can someone check my code and refine it .. thank you

[Help] Bluetooth app

Hi!
I have some problems with my bluetooth app. I made the setup for a bluetooth server on a Raspberry Pi and I was able to send data to it with my app, but I don't know how to receive data from the server. The server works properly, I tried with the BlueTerm 2 app and I can receive data from it. Can someone help me to implement the receiver in my app?

Black screen and app shutdown when trying to go back to the previous activity/view

When i run my script below everything works fine. When i want to go back to the previous activity i get a black screen on the emulator and then the app shuts down, i also get a black screen when i exit the application and try to resume it.

}
}
@Override public void run (){

continue;
Canvas canvas = surface.lockCanvas();
canvas.drawColor(Color.rgb(85, 107, 47));

}
}
}
I dont get any error message in the log, what i do get is about 13 messages saying "suspending all threads took: X ms" so it has something to the with my gameloop Thread i think. Unfortunately i dont see what the problem is in my code... Can anyone help me with this?

Bluetooth receive program

Hello.
I`m almost getting to the end of my Sound bar project (2 arduinos, relays, digital potentiometers, leds, i2c, bluetooth and ir remote, diy amplifier,...) and I`m stuck.
This is my first time using android studio and things are becoming so hard for me.
I created an app with a few buttons, switch, sliders and dropdown menu that connects to bluetooth module and sends values to my arduino.
Now I need to add a script that would receive values that arduino is sending (got arduino code done), and would eventualy set buttons clickable/unclickable and set slider positions depending on values being received thru bluetooth.
Can somebody please show me the way to read values from bluetooth and store them in integer or something so that buttons could be disabled and enabled with if(integer=x); statements.
I will post my java code (App is almost done, excepet for sliders and this bluetooth receive part) and I will post the code I came with so far...

Code:
TextView cmd = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.cmd); //Would like to show value in textbox for easier debugging.
Don`t know what to write here to make command executing all the time. (onCreate maybe?).
mmSocket = socket;
mRx = new ArrayList<Byte>();
InputStream tmpIn = null;
try {
tmpIn = socket.getInputStream();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
cmd.setText(//I don`t know what to put in here to display value of tmpIn//);
mmInStream = tmpIn; //Is tmpIn an integer and stores values received from bt? I assume so.
I`m going nust on this one
Thank you fo r help

The code was already there. Under void run, I just had to use strInput string.
