View 5 RepliesHow to cancel a connection?
View 5 RepliesI'm using ThreadSafeClientConnManager to manage a pool of client connections, because my application has several threads, which are simultaneously connecting to a webserver.
Abstract sample code:
CODE:..............
Now lets say on of this threads is downloading a large file, but then the user of my application is switching to another activity/screen. Therefor the file is needless and I'd like to abort this download connection.
In ThreadSafeClientConnManager I found this method: public ClientConnectionRequest requestConnection (HttpRoute route, Object state) Returns a new ClientConnectionRequest, from which a ManagedClientConnection can be obtained or the request can be aborted.
So far I've been using:
CODE:.........
Now from what I understand, I've to use:
httpclient.getConnectionManager().requestConnection(HttpRoute route, Object state);
And that's the point where I'm stuck. I assume that for the route I can just use new HttpRoute(new HttpHost("10.0.0.1")) or whatever my server is, but what to put in for Object state?
And second, as soon as I've the ClientConnectionManager I can call getConnection(long timeout, TimeUnit tunit). But then from there, how I do I execute my HttpGet httpRequest = new HttpGet(URL_TO_FILE); as I did before with HttpResponse response = (HttpResponse) httpclient.execute(httpRequest);?
I've been gone through the documentation and tried out quite a few different things, but I wasn't able to obtain a working solution. Therefor any suggestions and/or code examples are more than welcome.
i am using a unique value (primary ID) to set an alarm. When i want to edit the alarm i am using the same key. But what i see is that both the alarms go off! original as well as edited one. how do i cancel the old alarm ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am making an event application and user can set a reminder for events he wants. So i use the alarmManager to create alarms. I would like to put a cancel all option to my main activity so that i could cancel all the alarms created by my application. The usual method for canceling the alarm with the same intent doesnt really help cause i set tha alarms on a different activity than the one I want to cancel them in. So is there a way to cancel all the alarms created by my application?
View 1 Replies View RelatedCode below creates an Alarm, so far everything is working fine. But i am a bit lost in the Documentaion how to cancel an Alarm. I need to cancel only special Alarm(s) depending on Intent#putExtra(IntentConstants.SELECTED_PRIMARY_KEY,_selectedID);
How can i archive this ?
CODE:.....................
I'm writing something like a reminder for users. Users will set reminders for their events, when the time comes, a repeating alarm will be set to trigger a status bar notification. But the alarm seems non-stop after I selected the notification or cleared the notification. I am not sure where to cancel this repeating alarm. Below are some of the codes...
How can I stop the alarm when the user selects the notification or clears it?
As far as I can tell, AsyncTask's cancel method doesn't work as advertised. I can't tell whether this is a bug, or me not understanding AsyncTask's cancel() method. I'm asking here instead of StackOverflow because I suspect it's a bug.
I understand from past discussions here that cancel() isn't meant to actually kill a thread (though the description of the mayInterruptIfRunning flag sure implies it is). But I'm also checking for isCancelled() (which is returning false), and trying to use the onCancelled callback (which isn't getting called), to no avail.
My situation is that I have a (short-running, one small network call) AsyncTask that begins in my Activity's onCreate. If the user backs out of the screen before it finishes though, I need to either cancel the AsyncTask entirely, or at least make sure its onPostExecute doesn't do any meaningful work.
In my activity's onDestroy handler, I call cancel() on the task, and then inside the task I have an onCancelled handler that sets a boolean. In my onPostExecute handler, I check isCancelled(), and I also check to see whether the boolean has been set from onCancelled, and neither are.
I'm using the debugger, and the order of operations is:
1) onDestroy(), calls task.cancel() 2) task's onPostExecute runs, isCancelled() returns false, so I have no conditional to stop the flow and that's it. onCancelled never runs.
What am I doing wrong here? I can't find any way to tell my task not to run its work in onPostExecute.
I'm extending the CountDownTimer class to obtain some custom functionality .In onTick() in case some conditions are met I call cancel() , expecting that will be the end of it, however the onTick() callback gets call until the the count down is reached . So how to prevent this from happening ?
View 3 Replies View Related1) I have a Spinner with several options provided by an ArrayAdapter and have an onItemSelected listener on this Spinner. When selecting an item from the spinner, I want to display another view (list-view) but this method is unintentionally invoked upon initially displaying the view. The list-view is therefore displayed upon startup of the application. It is possible to add a spinner-on-item-select listener that won't fire upon initially displaying the view but only by the user selecting an item?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been reading through the docs, and I cannot figure out how to cancel a "drag" on a Seekbar once the bar has been completed.
For example, when I drag the bar to the end, I want an event to happen. However, if I keep my finger on the screen and drag my finger past the SeekBar, it keeps firing off that event even after I reset the progress of the Seekbar. How can I prevent this action from happening?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCause it doesn't.I have a service running an Asynctask to do some work. I bind to it from an activity and call a cancel method. The service, in turn, calls AsyncTask.cancel(true);
AyncTask.cancel returns true. Nonetheless, the thread is still running happily and still doing the things in doInBackGround, sending notifications along the way.
There is no sign that it attempted to kill the thread. I am not using NDK calls or anything that I think should stop if from taking down the thread. What am I doing wrong? Or is this a known issue?
I'm facing the same head-scratching moment similar to what this person (from Jan 2008) experienced when I realize that there is no cancel button in Android's progress dialog or spinners. It is now July 2009 and I've just installed the cupcake version of Android. Has this thing changed ? If not, are you adding a cancel button into the dialogs and how do you do it ?

The suer can now cancel the notification popup message by clicking outside the box. But how do I allow the user to cancel the dialog by touching on the dialog?
I have an extended dialog class that I want to show for 3 seconds then disappear.This works great the first 2 times it's called, but then it crashes my app after that.Admittedly, I'm not the best with threads and I think that's where my problem might be.As you can see from the code below (commented out section), I tried using a cancel event to kill the thread that is spawned, but that makes it crash the first time it's run. I've also tried doing all of this on the parent class' UI thread which yields the same result as this (crashes after 3 times displaying the dialog).

In my Android application user can fill database with imported data, then perform predefined, complex SQL query. With some data pattern, query will take very long (minutes and more on HTC Hero), while common usage will not exceed 10-15 seconds.
Is there any way to cancel pending SQLite query on Android? Timeout would be as good as well, partial results are not required. I'm performing query within AsyncTask.doInBackground()
I know best way is optimize query or change app logic, but in this case results depends on user knowledge anyway, so I'd like to help those who enter troublesome pattern.
I'm using a datepicker in Android to let the user to choose the date. I want it to do one thing if the user picks a date and sets it (I have that working fine) and then to clear a certain text field if the user pushes the cancel button on the datepicker (open up the datepicker but then cancel out of it).
The way I've been trying is by making a code...
to attach the listener.
My problem is that the listener works if the user pushes the back button, but not if they push the cancel button. I tried using a dismiss listener, and that works, except for the fact that it goes off even whether I set or cancel the datepicker!
What do I need to do so something goes off if and only if I push the cancel button on my datepicker?
I'm coding a very basic FTP client on top of my application and I have 2 activities. The first one is the file explorer and the second one is the image viewer. Once I click on the image filename on the explorer, I want to pass the connection to the other activity to handle extra stuff. Basically, I want to keep the same org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient object (which handles the connection) alive in-between the 2 activities. I know I can't pass an object inside an intent so I don't know what my best bets are.

I want to filter some messages and I do not want to get notifications from them.
I wrote some code that mute the phone whenever an incoming call is received.
When the phone in vibrate mode I use the following code to stop the phone vibration:
Vibrator vib = (Vibrator) context.getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);
vib.cancel();
While it worked on my Nexus One with android 2.1, it seems that it doesn't stop the vibration on an HTC Desire handset with android 2.1.
Have someone encountered this issue?
