HttpUrlConnection.connect 失败

Question

I've been trying to create a small app that connects to url in editText and returns the status code.

Here is the onCreate code:

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
    button.setOnClickListener {
        val url = editText.text.toString()
        var connection: HttpURLConnection? = null
        if (URLUtil.isValidUrl(url)) {
            connection = URL(url).openConnection() as HttpURLConnection
            var thr = Thread {
                connection.connect()
                val code = connection.responseCode
                runOnUiThread {
                    if (code != 404 && code != 500) {
                        textView.text = "Ok"
                    } else {
                        textView.text = "Failed"
                    }
                }

            }
            thr.start()
            thr.join()
        } else {
            textView.text = "Failed"
        }
    }

The problem is that whenever URL is valid, runtime error occurs in .connect() method. Internet permission is set up in android manifest. What causes that issue?

Answer 1

For those who didn't read chat:

URLUtil.isValidUrl(url) doesn't check that the url in question actually can be resolved to a website/server. This means that when connect is called on a website/server that doesn't exist, an exception is thrown, since there is nothing to connect to.

Hi please check if you have provided the permission of internet in your manifest,

<manifest >
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
 <application> 
  ...
 </application> 
</manifest>
