My goal is to use the DefaultHttpClient with persistent cookies.

I'd like to make an http request to a remote server while properly handling cookies (eg. storing cookies sent by the server, and sending those cookies when I make subsequent requests). It'd be nice to preserve any and all cookies, but really the only one I care about is the session cookie.
With java.net, it appears that the preferred way to do this is using java.net.CookieHandler (abstract base class) and java.net.CookieManager (concrete implementation). Android has java.net.CookieHandler, but it does not seem to have java.net.CookieManager.
I could code it all by hand by inspecting http headers, but it seems like there must be an easier way.
What is the proper way to make http requests on Android while preserving cookies?
I have Cyanogenmod 10.1 (self-built) on my Samsung I9300 Int., but I assume the question applies to every android version (I'm new to android development and flashing custom firmwares to my phone, but I have thorough experience with other embedded devices and gnu/linux):
I'm currently modifying a system apk (specifically LockClock.apk), which comes with CM10.1. From time to time, I "adb push" a modified version of the apk to my /system/app. (When the app works), it works without problems until the phone is restartet. After the reboot, the application does no longer appear to be installed (though the modified apk is still present in /system/app). I have to "adb push" the apk again, to make it work again. Is there a way to make the app permanently installed after an "adb push"?
I am trying to maintain my session variables that I get back in a cookie from my website in my DefaultHttpClient by passing the client between activities. Simply put how can I pass this object between activities to maintain my session variables? Bundle.put... doesn't seem to support this object. If it does how does it work with DefaultHttpClient?

I am getting an error of "javax.net.ssl SSLException: Not trusted server certificate" when the .execute runs. I want to simply allow any certificate to work, regardless of if it is or is not in the android key chain.
I have spent about 40 hours researching and trying to figure out a workaround for this issue. I have seen many examples of how to do this but none so far have worked in Android; they seem to only work for JAVA. Does anyone know how to configure, or override the certificate validation used by the Apache HttpClient in Android so that it will just approve all certificates for a DefaultHttpClient connection?
My application needs to store some application specific data on the device that persist, even when the app is uninstalled. Using files or databases is not possible as they are deleted with the app when the app is uninstalled. Storing it on an SD-card is too fragile. It is my understanding Content Providers also are deleted with their parent app?

Initially I coded it just as a class filed in my Service implementation but I'm observing that the updates object is periodically reset to null which tells me that server class itself is recreated. Can someone recommend lightweight reliable strategy to save and recreate such updates object (I can make it serializable)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an application on appspot that works fine through regular browser, however when used through Android WebView, it cannot set and read cookies. I am not trying to get cookies "outside" this web application BTW, once the URL is visited by WebView, all processing, ids, etc. can stay there, all I need is session management inside that application. First screen also loads fine, so I know WebView + server interactivity is not broken.
I looked at WebSettings class, there was no call like setEnableCookies.
I load url like this:

This usually happens when the user hits "Home", does something else, then eventually wanders back into the app - it attempts to go back to where it was before, but the application Context has mysteriously lost all its previously-saved state information (in my case, a few integers and a few Strings). I know this is a very vague question, but are there any cases (other than the user using "back" to back completely out of the application) where the application Context gets completely destroyed even though the application is not terminated? Is there a better way to maintain persistent state information?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my Android app, each activity is filled with data from an xml file which is somewhere on the web. The website providing these files has a login mechanism, that works with cookies.
I know how to make a HTTP Request to the login page and receive a cookie. What I don't know is, how I can store it to re-use it in both other activities AND when the app is started the next time. The cookie is valid for a year, so the user of my app should log in once and then never again for a whole year.
How do I do that? I googled a lot, but either I used the wrong keywords or there are no simple solutions on the internet.

First off, let me say that feel free to recommend me if long lived TCP persistent connections are the way to go or persistent HTTP connections are better.
I've also pre-read that instead of having a persistent connection, I can have a polling mechanism.
I'm just asking in the curious interest of how can I create a persistent connection from Android to a server?
How can I execute an action (maybe an Intent) on every specified time (e.g. Every day on 5AM)? It has to stay after device reboots, similar to how cron works.
I am not sure if I can use AlarmManager for this, or can I?
An Android app I am building requires web authentication for users to make data calls. In Adobe AIR and later the iPhone, we did this by rendering a login page in a webview-equivalent page and setting a cookie when the user signs in. Subsequent data calls use the same Cookie Jar and so are seen as authenticated.
In the Android version, I authenticate the user using a WebView and then once thats done, I make a data call using DefaultHttpClient, however I cant seem to load the data on the second call.
Is there some cookie gotcha I am missing? I imagine the HTTPClient and WebView would share the same Cookie space.

I am trying to login to a site and maintain that session/cookie so that the server will recognize my login, but I am struggling to figure out a way of extracting the cookie from the response and setting into a request to maintain my login. I'm wondering if I should go about taking the header "Set-Cookie" or using a CookieStore. Any help is greatly appreciated. Here is my code that I have, with comments where I think the getHeader/getCookie methods would go.

In hopes of others better understanding my confusion am adding code that I know DOES work and maintains a session but when I tried to move the code into my actual application it broke somewhere down the line.

I know for a fact it works, and you can see that in this code I consumeContent() but adding that to the top code didn't seem to make a difference so I left it out.
I am still unable to get the code working in keeping a session going. I am posting the cookies from my current code, along with the cookies of the second code that is working. Perhaps someone will notice an issue, I certainly do not.

I'm developing an app that logs into a web site. To do this I use the HttpClient object.
I noticed I could get all the cookies from the post requests with the HttClient.getCookieStore method, the question is however how I save these cookies so the next time the app is started, the user don't have to log in.
I should also mention that while the login was post request, rest of the site is mostly get requests, does this effect how the cookies are managed at all?
How can i clear all cookies?
could u give me a sample code to clear all cookies?
Is it possible to access cookies managed by the Browser app (i.e. not a custom WebView)? If so, how?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a bitmap editor where I use the Command Pattern to represent actions that will transform the document. I keep all the commands executed so far in a list and, to implement undo, I restore the document to its initial state and then replay all but the last command.
I would like my undo/redo system to have the following feature: When the user closes the editor and returns, the document, including the available undo and redo commands, should be restored to the state it was in when the user left.
I'm implementing this for Android where your application can be given very little notice before it will be cleared from memory if e.g. the user gets a phone call. Also, some of my commands are e.g. a list of all the x,y co-ord the user painted on so these might take a few moments to save to disk.
My current idea is as follows:
When a new action is performed, the command object is added to a list S for commands that need to be saved to disk.
A background thread is used that will continually take commands from list S and save them to disk. The postfix of the filenames used will be numbered in sequence. For example, if the user filled the screen then drew 2 circles, the command files might be called FillCommand1.cmd, DrawCircleCommand2.cmd, DrawCircleCommand3.cmd.
Periodically, we save a "checkpoint" command whose purpose is to store the full document state so that, even if one of the .cmd files is corrupted, we can restore a recent version of the document.
When the user exits the app, the background thread attempts to finish up saving all the commands it can (but it might get killed).
On startup, we look for the most recent .cmd file that represents a checkpoint that we can load successfully. All the .cmd files we can load after this (i.e. some files might be corrupt) go in the redo command list, all the .cmd files we can load between the first checkpoint loaded and the oldest checkpoint we can load go in the undo list.
I want the undo limit to be about 20 or 30 commands back so I need extra logic for discarding commands, deleting .cmd files and I've got to worry about multi-threading behaviour. This system seems pretty complex and will need a lot of testing to make sure it doesn't go wrong.
Is there anything in Java or Android than can help make this easier? Am I reinventing the wheel anywhere? Maybe a database would be better?
I got the solution of get back to the first activity by pressing previous button without changing data of first activity. Now, the user will enter his credentials. When he click to proceed further, the credential details will directly go to the server and server gives response with the cookie and that cookies should be store in my phone for the usage for the future. It means that when the user again run the application he should directly logged in into the application, e.g., www.mail.yahoo.com.

Amazon mp3 also does the same thing. it still comes back even if i use titanium backup to freeze the app.
