Error with Android XML reader

Question

I have an XML parser that works correctly, but if the User is connected to a network that are not browsing the app breaks. To put a function to detect whether or not the User is connected, but the problem mentioned above, the User would be connected but no browsing.

My code follows in full:

public void chamaParser(){
    Boolean conected = Conectado(this);
    if(conected == true){
        new DoInBackground().execute();
    } else {
        mPullRefreshListViewRSS.onRefreshComplete();
        new AlertDialog.Builder(PullToRefreshListActivityRSS.this)
                .setTitle("Alerta!")
                .setMessage("Não foi possível estabelecer uma conexão com a Internet, verifique sua rede ou tente novamente mais tarde.")
                .setNeutralButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
                        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {}
        }).show();
    }
}

public void do_update() {
    RssParser.parse();
}

public static boolean Conectado(Context context) {
    try {
        ConnectivityManager cm = (ConnectivityManager)context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        String LogSync = null;
        String LogToUserTitle = null;
        if (cm.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE).isConnected()) {
            LogSync += "\nConectado a Internet 3G ";
            LogToUserTitle += "Conectado a Internet 3G ";
            return true;
        } else if(cm.getNetworkInfo(ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI).isConnected()) {
            LogSync += "\nConectado a Internet WIFI ";
            LogToUserTitle += "Conectado a Internet WIFI ";
            return true;
        } else {
            LogSync += "\nNão possui conexão com a internet ";
            LogToUserTitle += "Não possui conexão com a internet ";
            return false;
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        return false;
    }
}

private class DoInBackground extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> implements DialogInterface.OnCancelListener {
    private ProgressDialog dialog;

    protected void onPreExecute() {
        //dialog = ProgressDialog.show(PullToRefreshListActivityRSS.this, "", "Carregando...", true);
        dialog = ProgressDialog.show(PullToRefreshListActivityRSS.this, "", "Carregando...", true, true, new DialogInterface.OnCancelListener(){
                @Override
                public void onCancel(DialogInterface dialog) {
                    mPullRefreshListViewRSS.onRefreshComplete();
                    DoInBackground.this.cancel(true);
                    // finish();
                }
        });
    }

    protected Void doInBackground(Void... unused) { 
        PodcastAdapterRSS.topBarRSS=true;

        do_update(); 
        return null; 
    }

Parser XML:

public class RssParser {

    public static void parse() {
        URL url;
        try {
            url = new URL("http://www.xxxx.com.br/feed/");
            HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

            if(conn.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
                DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
                DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
                Document doc;
                doc = db.parse(url.openStream());
                doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();
                NodeList itemLst = doc.getElementsByTagName("item");
                arrays.Title = new String[itemLst.getLength()];
                arrays.Link = new String[itemLst.getLength()];
                arrays.Description = new String[itemLst.getLength()];
                // arrays.PodcastMedia = new String[itemLst.getLength()];

                for(int i=0; i < itemLst.getLength(); i++){

                    Node item = itemLst.item(i);
                    if(item.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE){
                        Element ielem = (Element)item;
                        NodeList title = ielem.getElementsByTagName("title");
                        NodeList link = ielem.getElementsByTagName("link");
                        //NodeList description = ielem.getElementsByTagName("description"); 
                        NodeList content = ielem.getElementsByTagName("description");
                        //   NodeList media = ielem.getElementsByTagName("media:content");

                        //    String mediaurl = media.item(0).getAttributes().getNamedItem("url").getNodeValue();

                          arrays.Title[i] = title.item(0).getChildNodes().item(0).getNodeValue();
                          arrays.Link[i] = link.item(0).getChildNodes().item(0).getNodeValue();
                          arrays.Description[i] = content.item(0).getChildNodes().item(0).getNodeValue();

                    }
                }
            }

        } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (DOMException e) {

Answer 1

Try adding this to your manifest:

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

If that doesn't work, consult the answers to these two questions:

Android java.net.UnknownHostException: Host is unresolved

Android java.net.UnknownHostException: Host is unresolved (strategy question)

Answer 2

You will need to give your asynctask a timeout handler, since you are connected but not downloading anything. Put a timeout for around 3000 - 5000ms
