Android :: Custom Protocol Handler For Urls In Webview

Nov 6, 2010

I am hoping to create my own protocol handler for urls in a webview. I have tried two approaches already. The first was to attempt something similar to the approach defined here to create a customer protocol handler. http://java.sun.com/developer /onlineTraining/ protocol handlers / This works in a command-line Java program if I correctly set the system property java.protocol.handler.pkgs, but it does not work in Android, probably because I cannot figure out where to define this system property. Defining the system property in the code does not work. I assume this is because it needs to be loaded when the application first starts. I have also attempted to use URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory. This works for creating URL objects within the code, but it does not seem to be associated with the WebView. Any ideas on how to get this working?

Android :: Custom Protocol Handler for urls in webview


Android :: Custom Protocol Handler

Nov 11, 2009

i want to do the following thing - when a user navigates to a web page, I want to have a link in there that looks like this: <p><a href="myprotocol://blah=42">Click here for fun.</a></p> Then when the user clicks on that from the phone browser, I want it to launch my intent with that full url. In my AndroidManifest.xml file, I have the following info: <activity android:name="com.test.MyActivity" style="@style/ MyStyle"> <!-- custom protocol association --><intent-filter><action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"></action> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"></category><category android:name="android.intent. category. BROWSABLE"> </category><data android:scheme="myprotocol"/></intent-filter></activity>When I try this, when I click on the link on the web page from the phone browser, it says -- Web page not available The Web page at myprotocol://blah=42 might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

Android :: Way To Have WebView Auto-link URLs In Phone?

Nov 16, 2009

If a page has a URL or a phone number on it that isn't a link is there any way to have WebView recognize it and automatically turn it into a link like you can with TextViews?
With a TextView you would simply set the android:autoLink to the desired settings:
<TextView
android:autoLink="web|phone"
... />
but I can't find any equivalent for WebView.

Android :: Custom Changeable Handler When Service Finishes Downloading File

May 30, 2010

I have a Service that downloads a file from the internet. What I want is for the response (an InputStream in this case) to be handled by a custom handler that can be switched (like a strategy pattern) but I can't figure out how to do this. So basically the User of the API would be able to plug in different handlers for the response, some would parse XML, others might save files etc. I realise I could pass through the activity context and execute the method from this (given some interface) but I don't want to do this obviously, in case the Activity is closed in the meantime while the file is still downloaded.

UPDATE - I just had one idea it will work sort of but has problem if the DownloadRunnable gets changed between executions of the downloads.

The modified Runnable interface
interface DownloadRunnable {
void run(InputStream stream);
}

An enum

public enum ServiceHandler {.......................

Android :: Sending Custom Headers In WebView

Mar 12, 2010

I've found some information about this topic, but I was curious as to whether anyone has had any success loading webpages in a WebView with custom headers. There doesn't seem to be any simple way of doing this. I've seen an implementation that involved downloading the webpage and separately loading the data into the WebView. While this is not difficult, the WebView then demonstrated problems with relative URLs and downloading images.

Android :: Possible To Set Custom HTTP Headers In WebView?

Jan 5, 2010

I have to access a web page from within my application and, in order to have access to it, I need to set some custom HTTP headers. I want to use the WebViewclass in my activity but, as far as I can tell, it's not possible to set custom HTTP headers.

So is there a way of using the existing web browser (or WebView) with custom HTTP headers? My application targets Android 1.6.

Android :: Load HTML File To WebView With Custom CSS

Nov 6, 2010

I have a WebView on my Android application which loads (WebView.loadUrl()) different local HTML files from phone's internal storage. I would like to include some custom css styles for them, Now, I could have my app edit every HTML file and add linking reference for the CSS file.I could also read the file contents, add the CSS linking and use WebView.loadData() to load it.But is it possible to do this a lot simpler and efficiently.Note: The HTML files are downloaded from a website. So editing them manually is not possible in this case, but once downloaded they can be edited via the app if necessary.

Android : How To Monitor HTTP(S) Traffic / URLs

Oct 13, 2009

I'm interested in whether there is a way to monitor HTTP(S) traffic on an Android phone? What I would like to do is to be able to retrieve all URLs that have been accessed on the phone's browser. I thought that there would be a browser intent for that, but have not seen anything - given I'm green, maybe I just did not know where to look?

I followed the question and answer here, but it works only for hyperlinks which were clicked by the user, however I need to catch all URLs - including the ones typed in by the user. Basically I need to know about every single URL that was opened in the web browser.

Can I register some kind of a handler with the browser?

Android :: Filtering Urls Within An Activity's Intent-filter?

Feb 6, 2010

I'm registering an intent-filter on an activity to listen for url clicks from a certain domain:

CODE:.............

This works, but is there a way to filter out certain urls from my domain? For example, my app can only do something useful for the user if it gets a url like: www.mywebsite.com/orange

But if the user clicks on a link like: www.mywebsite.com/blue

I can't do anything useful for them, so I'd like to just let them continue using the browser to open that url. Is there a way I get a chance to see the URL before android pops up the chooser dialog and presents my app as a possible handler for the url? Is there some method in Activity which allows me to filter?

Android :: Can I Use Data URLs In Android 2.1 Web Kit Based Browser?

Apr 20, 2010

I am writing a tutorial about the HTML5 Canvas for mobile and did some basic tests. While I can call the getDataURL () Method on an iPhone's HTML5 Canvas Element, it does not seem to return the data URL on Android 2.1 (Google Nexus One) and it's webkit-based default browser. Here is the sample: var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL(); var img = document.createElement('img'); img.setAttribute('src', dataURL); document.getElementById ('box'). appendChild(img); This will work on iPhone, it will add a new image element with the same content as the canvas. It does nothing or fails on Android 2.1.Has anyone ever gotten this to work? I am also wondering if anyone could help me with understanding the WebKit Build numbers and what it means with regards to what features I can expect. For the iphone, I see a build number of 528.18, on Android 2.1's Browser I see (from the user agent strign) a WebKit build 530.17.So it looks Android 2.1's webkit browser is more up to date, still some features work on iPhone's webkit but not on Android. Does this comparison just make no sense?

Android :: Protocol Buffers (protobuf)

Jul 21, 2009

When using Protocol Buffers with Android (running in the Windows VM) I'm noticing that the first time I instantiate a protocol buffer based class Android lags for some time. When I step through it looks like it's spending a lot of time dynamically loading the protocol buffer classes. Is there something I can do to speed up this process? I haven't tested yet on a physical device, so the delay might not be as bad but in the VM it takes about 30 - 45 seconds to load all the classes and get past that first message instantiation. What I did was downloaded the Protocol Buffers source code. Compiled the.java files. Stuffed them into a .jar. Added the .jar as an external library to my Eclipse project. Generated the .java classes from the .proto files. Added the generated .java files to my project. Ran my project. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong it terms of how to reference external libraries with an Android project, but 30-45 seconds seems like a very long time to wait on a 2.6GHz machine. Also, I recently learned that android uses Protocol Buffers internally. Will this cause any sort of conflicts with my included .jar that could be the problem? I *think* the namespace is different but I'm not entirely sure. Lastly. Why did Google use Protocol Buffers internally and not make it available to SDK developers. This makes me very sad knowing that it's all right there and I can't use it.

Feb 11, 2010

I would like to explain me better. In android once you receive an email on gmail you would get notified almost in realtime. How does it work? Thinking about an answer i had 1 idea: Android is connected to a gmail server which does not send anything untill it has new mails This solution , which is the only one i can think about, is a little bit expensive, in term of battery consumption. Do you have further ideas? If not do you know some opensource server that will accomplish my idea?
