Android :: Does WebView's LoadUrl Method Run On UI Thread
Aug 26, 2010
I am wondering how does webview load a particular URL. Does it create a new thread or load the URL in the same thread i.e. UI thread? The reason I am asking this is I am facing some weird wakeup lock issue when I launch an Activity from current Activity (in current Activity's onCreate method) which creates a WebView in it's onCreate method and loads a URL using loadUrl method. So when I am done with this activity and go back to the Activity which launched this is restarted because wakeup lock time was expired.I googled it and found out that if onCreate method of an Activity takes too long then this type of issue might occur. Have any of you faced this kind of issue involving a WebView? Any kind of help would be really appreciated.
Here is sample code.Activity A:

I came across an interesting issue when testing android 2.2.
My testing was to use webview api,webview.loadUrl(url);
If url is from any public domain, ex, www.google.com, the web content is rendered very well.
[url]
If url is from local host, ex, tomcat with port 8080, the web content is rendered as well.
[url]
But if url is from other port, ex, websphere with port 9080, the web content is not rendered.
[url]
There is no exception thrown, and it shows blank on the emulator.
Is there any setting needed for different port?

The following code leads to "java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException: Thread already started." the second time it is run through on the program This happens the second time updateUI.start() is called. I've stepped through it multiple times and the thread is called and completely runs to completion before hitting updateUI.start(). Calling updateUI.run() avoids the error but causes the thread to run in the UI thread (the calling thread, as mentioned in other posts on SO), which is not what I want. Can a Thread be started only once? If so than what do I do if I want to run the thread again? This particular thread is doing some calculation in the background, if I don't do it in the thread than it's done in the UI thread and the user has an unreasonably long wait.

I have an android application that loads web pages in an activity with a WebView. I am using the retrieving the page manually and using WebView's loadDataWithBaseURL to display it on screen. Everything there is fine.
Now, i am trying to override the Back button press to simulate going back in the WebView history stack. I am able to override the Back button press, i can see that there is a history stack in the WebView, i can see that the history url is correct, but when i call WebView's goBack() method, it displays a blank page.
If i use WebView's loadUrl method, the Back button with an override works as intended. But why.... If i need to handle this manually, how do i start messing with history pages?

I have code in my activity's onCreate that sets an onItemClick listener. when it fires I try to show a ProgressDialog that will be up until a subsequent thread "Thread" does it's processing. Strangely to me, the progress dialog never shows until *after* the thread.run() processing is complete. Almost like it's blocking. Am I doing something wrong? this is true even if the run method of doCurrentLocation doesn't do anything.

As I say in the topic, I want my WebView to prevent from reloading the webpage when another activity comes to the foreground or just when the orientation is changed. The reason why is because the WebView content is generated by Javascript/AJAX almost completely. After searching on a couple of forums, I found out many people suggested to use "saveState" and "restoreState" methods, but when I look the documentation, it says:Please note that this method no longer restores the display data for this WebView. See savePicture(Bundle, File) and restorePicture(Bundle, File) for saving and restoring the display data.So, here I was using that savePicture and restorePicture as it follows:protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); some other lines
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
if (savedInstanceState == null){
loadInicialWebUi();
}else{ mWebView.restoreState(savedInstanceState);
boolean restoredPic = mWebView.restorePicture(savedInstanceState, new File("savedDisplayWebView.temp"));
Log.d(TAG, "restored Picture:" + restoredPic);
@Override protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
mWebView.saveState(savedInstanceState);
boolean savedPic = mWebView.savePicture(savedInstanceState, "savedDisplayWebView.temp");
Log.d(TAG, "saved Picture:" + savedPic);
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}And well, those logs were revealing that it saves the picture, but it couldn't restore it. I suspect there might be something about the File references, but I couldn't think of a better way of getting the reference of the File I created when saving the state.Anyone thrilled?

I'm planning to use the JavaScript interface to Java, to connect to Java methods that go to the network (or some other long-running function) and deliver the results via callback.
The flow is: 1. User clicks on a link in the WebView, which calls my Java code. 2. My Java code posts a worker Runnable to a Handler, and returns immediately. 3. The worker goes to the network, then makes a callback to the WebView.loadUrl("function('result')") to deliver the result.
I made an example that sleeps inside the Runnable. The entire WebView becomes unresponsive! What is the proper way (if any) of implementing a long-running JavaScript call?
Is it safe to call loadUrl() from multiple threads?

I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.

In Eclipse, when I mouse hover over a built-in method, it displays a method definition including stuff like what the method does, input objects, return objects etc. If I have a yellow line (warning) under the method I'm trying to use, I can't get the mouse-over to show the definition. If I try hitting F3, I get a "The Jar of this class file belongs to container "Android 1.6" How do I show the definition of the method I am using when there is a warning?

I want to do the drawing in another thread to speed up the game(it is way to slow right now). I was told to do this but don't quite understand why that would speed things up. Is it GameView that should implement Runnable? Should I make the thread sleep when not drawing? where should I start the thread? package com.android.WWS;
