Android Question Okhttputils2 and redirects

[wimpie3]

A while ago I asked if it was possible to manually handle http redirects which came back from a server (see https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/httprequest-redirects.8132). That possibility was added with the http.protocol.handle-redirects parameter.

I'm now using okhttptutils2 and that possibility does not seem to be present (anymore)?

But this means I have to modify the library?

 

[DonManfred]

yes. Use the source version, do the changes and use the source instead of the library. You also can compile the modified source as a library again...

The instructions are to replace the initialize Sub in httputils2service with this code (source downloaded on https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-okhttputils2-ihttputils2-httputils2-source-code.82632/):

Sub Initialize
   If hc.IsInitialized = False Then
     TempFolder = File.DirTemp
     Dim jo As JavaObject = hc
     Dim builder As JavaObject = jo.RunMethod("sharedInit", Array("hc"))
     builder.RunMethod("followRedirects", Array(False))
     jo.SetField("client", builder.RunMethod("build", Null))     
     TaskIdToJob.Initialize
   End If
End Sub

However, there IS not initialize sub in httputils2service... and when I ADD the sub, I get the error that dirtemp is an unknown member.

there IS not initialize sub in httputils2service

no one told that there should be one.
you need to change the hc.inizialize line in the start_service sub...

 

[wimpie3]

You mean the Sub Service_Create, Manfred? (the Sub Service_Start is empty).

 

[DonManfred]

or create. where the hc.initialize can be found...
