无法访问服务器时程序关闭

Question

I'm new to Android and programming in general. I've built an activity that runs a service that connects to a PHP script to pull some data from a server. The problem is that when the program can't reach the server it crashes. How do I prevent the program from crashing each time it can't reach the php script? Thanks.

The relevant part of the code:

private String getServerData(String returnString) {

      InputStream is = null;

      String result = "";


       try{
               HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
               HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(returnString);
               HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
               HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
               is = entity.getContent();

       }catch(Exception e){
               Log.e("log_tag", "Error in http connection "+e.toString());
       }

       //convert response to string
       try{
               BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is,"iso-8859-1"),8);
               StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
               String line = null;
               while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                       sb.append(line + "\n");
                           }
               is.close();
               result=sb.toString();

           }catch(Exception e){
               Log.e("log_tag", "Error converting result "+e.toString());
       }

       return result; 

   }

Answer 1

Probably you'll just have to catch whatever exception is being thrown when connecting to your server fails. You need to post the code that you are currently using though. Without being able to see what you've done we can only guess randomly at what will fix it.

Answer 2

    public static InputStream fetch(String urlString) throws MalformedURLException, IOException {
    HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();

    int timeoutConnection = 3000;
    HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection);

    int timeoutSocket = 5000;
    HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket);

    DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
    HttpGet request = new HttpGet(urlString);
    HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(request);
    return response.getEntity().getContent();
}

You have to put timeoutConnection and timeoutSocket values so that device won't be waiting for response forever. More info about fields are accessible here .

Answer 3

If there is an Exception thrown in the 1st try block, you instanciate a BufferedReader on a null InputStream . Have only one try/catch block, or properly quit the method in the first catch .
