Android Question Unfortunately App has stopped HTTP Request with no data connection

[Derek Jee]

Hello

I am testing my app to see what happens if I am making an http request and the data connection fails. Simply I turn off the wifi connection and run the process. When I run the request with no wifi I get the Unfortunately app has stopped message. I have put a try/end try around the code to see where it errors but it does not trap it. I am running in release mode too when I turn off my wifi. Of course I am checking for a connection before I run this process but I want to make sure the app doesn't crash if connection fails after the check..

Can anyone advise?

Many thanks,


Derek.

aren't you confusing the http with the httputils2 library?

hc_ was part of the old method I believe.

I never used the tag before myself and never had that issue either.

confusion is a semi permanent state for me most days .. I have the HTTPJob and HTTPUtils2Service modules in my designer..

ok, no problem with that

for the next project keep in mind that both are kind of outdated.

Thank you.. I will bear that in mind.. I though I had downloaded that version but maybe it was in another life..
