How to check if internet connection is present in java?
- by Chris
How do you check if you can connect to the internet via java? One way would be:
final URL url = new URL("http://www.google.com");
final URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
... if we got here, we should have net ...
But is there something more appropriate to perform that task, especially if you need to do consecutive checks very often and a loss of internet connection is highly probable?
