Android :: Consuming WCF REST Service Is Very Slow
Aug 31, 2010I have a WCF REST service built with C# and it returns an image as part of a CPU intensive operation. The client is running on Android (Java) By default, it will return a text JSON object that looks something like this:{"d",[9,0,77,12,11,...]}Those are they bytes of the image. Fine. However, all the solutions for decoding this JSON are intolerably slow. I've tried Gson, Jackson, and the built-in Android JSONObject class. I have no idea why they are so slow.As an alternative solution, I have my REST service return a GUID, and then that GUID can be used by the Android client to go to a regular URL that serves up the image as a regular binary stream, via an MVC controller. This works well, and it fast, and is pretty easy to handle on the Android side. However, it does feel like a bit of kludge and kind of a violation of the REST design principles.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Authenticate To REST Web Service From Droid App?
Sep 24, 2010I need to pull data from a REST web service in my android app. The web service requires authentication.
I need to first call a login method, which will return me an authToken and JSESSIONID as part of the response header. I need to pass these items back with every request. I'm currently using: org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient.DefaultHttpClient() to call the login method. I can see the authToken and JSESSIONID are being returned in the response header.
Are there any existing tools or classes that might provide some sort of management functionality that I can easily integrate with my android app?

Android :: Call A RESTful Web Service From Application - Exception
Jun 14, 2009I'm trying to call a RESTful web service from an Android application using the following method:
CODE:................
I can browse to address and see the xml results using the Android Emulator browser and from my machine. I have given my app the INTERNET permission.
I'm developing with eclipse.
I've seen it mentioned that I might need to configure a proxy but since the web service i'm calling is on port 80 this shouldn't matter should it? I can call the method with the browser.
Android :: How To Utilize REST To Post GPS Data Into Application?
Apr 14, 2010I am a student in the process a building an Android app that can post a GPS track into a Rails application. I would like to do things the "Rails" way and take advantage of the REST. My rails application basically has 3 models at this point: users, tracks, and points. A user has_many tracks and a track has_many points. A track also has a total distance. Points have a latitude and longitude. I have successfully been able to create an empty track with:
curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' -d '<track><distance>100</distance></track>' http://localhost:3000/users/1/tracks
That is pretty cool. I am really impressed that rails do this. Just to see what would happen I tried the following:
curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/xml -d '<track><distance>100</distance><points><point><lat>3</lat><lng>2</lng></point></points></track>' http://localhost:3000/users/1/tracks
Fail! The server spits back:
Processing TracksController#create (for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-04-14 00:03:25) [POST]
Parameters: {"track"=>{"points"=>{"point"=>{"lng"=>"2", "lat"=>"3"}}, "distance"=>"100"}, "user_id"=>"1"} User Load (0.6ms) SELECT * FROM "users" WHERE ("users"."id" = 1) ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch (Point(#-620976268) expected, got Array(#-607740138)): app/controllers/tracks_controller.rb:47:in 'create'
It seems my tracks_controller doesn't like or understand what it's getting from the params object in my tracks_controller.rb:
def create @track = @user.tracks.build(params[:track])
My xml might be wrong, but at least Rails seems to be expecting a Point from it. Is there anyway I can fix TracksController.create so that it will be able to parse xml of a track with nested multiple points? Or is there another way I should be doing this entirely?
Android :: Android Remote Service Doesn't Call Service Methods
May 28, 2010I'm developing a GPS tracking software on android. I need IPC to control the service from different activities. So I decide to develop a remote service with AIDL.This wasn't a big problem but now it's always running into the methods of the interface and not into those of my service class. Maybe someone could help me?If i now try to call a method from an activity for example start(trackId) nothing happens. The binding is OK. When debugging it always runs into the startTracking() in the generated ITrackingServiceRemote.java file and not into my TrackingService class. Where is the problem? I can't find anything wrong.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid : How Can A Service Call StartService On Itself?
Jul 19, 2010I have a Service which is typically bound to, but sometimes needs to go into a mode where it should be active even if nobody is bound to it. Therefore, startService() must be called so it can be explicitly started & stopped. In my case, when exactly this should happen is best determined by the service itself, depending on its state (after being bound to). Can the Service (at the appropriate time) just call startService() from it's own Context?

Sep 4, 2010I'm getting a Java Socket Exception "Operation timed out" when trying to call a .NET web service method. I've followed the many examples out there on the web to get my android to call a .net web service.
I'm running the web service using VS2010 in debug mode. The web method I'm calling is very simple -> "string GetVersion()"
I've read some posts that eclipse needs to be configured to access the internet by modifying the Proxy preferences "Preferences -> General -> Network Connections" from the Window menu item. I haven't been able to figure out exactly what I need to configure in the Proxy to get things to work if that is the problem.
I've also tried to access the .net web service root page (service.asmx) from my android with no success. I can access the asmx page with no problems using IE on the local machine. I've turned off the firewall and that didn't solve anything either. This is the first time I've tried to access a web service from a remote computer when it was running using VS2010 in debug mode.
I don't know if I have a configuration issue on the eclipse side or on the VS2010 side.
I'm also running Windows 7 Home Premium.
