Error with my Android Application httpGet
- by Coombes
Basically I'm getting a strange issue with my Android application, it's supposed to grab a JSON Array and print out some values, the class looks like this:
ShowComedianActivity.class
package com.example.connecttest;
public class ShowComedianActivity extends Activity{
TextView name;
TextView add;
TextView email;
TextView tel;
String id;
// Progress Dialog
private ProgressDialog pDialog;
//JSON Parser class
JSONParser jsonParser = new JSONParser();
// Single Comedian url
private static final String url_comedian_details = "http://86.9.71.17/connect/get_comedian_details.php";
// JSON Node names
private static final String TAG_SUCCESS = "success";
private static final String TAG_COMEDIAN = "comedian";
private static final String TAG_ID = "id";
private static final String TAG_NAME = "name";
private static final String TAG_ADDRESS = "address";
private static final String TAG_EMAIL = "email";
private static final String TAG_TEL = "tel";
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.show_comedian);
// Getting Comedian Details from intent
Intent i = getIntent();
// Getting id from intent
id = i.getStringExtra(TAG_ID);
new GetComedianDetails().execute();
}
class GetComedianDetails extends AsyncTask<String, String, String>{
protected void onPreExecute(){
super.onPreExecute();
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(ShowComedianActivity.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Fetching Comedian details. Please wait...");
pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
pDialog.setCancelable(true);
pDialog.show();
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
public void run(){
int success;
try{
//Building parameters
List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id",id));
// Getting comedian details via HTTP request
// Uses a GET request
JSONObject json = jsonParser.makeHttpRequest(url_comedian_details, "GET", params);
// Check Log for json response
Log.d("Single Comedian details", json.toString());
//JSON Success tag
success = json.getInt(TAG_SUCCESS);
if(success == 1){
// Succesfully received product details
JSONArray comedianObj = json.getJSONArray(TAG_COMEDIAN); //JSON Array
// get first comedian object from JSON Array
JSONObject comedian = comedianObj.getJSONObject(0);
// comedian with id found
name = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.name);
add = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.add);
email = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.email);
tel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tel);
// Set text to details
name.setText(comedian.getString(TAG_NAME));
add.setText(comedian.getString(TAG_ADDRESS));
email.setText(comedian.getString(TAG_EMAIL));
tel.setText(comedian.getString(TAG_TEL));
}
} catch (JSONException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
return null;
}
}
}
And my JSON Parser class looks like:
package com.example.connecttest;
public class JSONParser {
static InputStream is = null;
static JSONObject jObj = null;
static String json = "";
// constructor
public JSONParser() {
}
// function get json from url
// by making HTTP POST or GET method
public JSONObject makeHttpRequest(String url, String method,
List<NameValuePair> params) {
// Making HTTP request
try {
// check for request method
if(method == "POST"){
// request method is POST
// defaultHttpClient
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();
}else if(method == "GET"){
// request method is GET
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
String paramString = URLEncodedUtils.format(params, "utf-8");
url += "?" + paramString;
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();
}
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
is.close();
json = sb.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Buffer Error", "Error converting result " + e.toString());
}
// try parse the string to a JSON object
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(json);
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}
// return JSON String
return jObj;
}
}
Now when I run a debug it's querying the correct address with ?id=1 on the end of the URL, and when I navigate to that url I get the following JSON Array:
{"success":1,"comedian":[{"id":"1","name":"Michael Coombes","address":"5 Trevethenick Road","email":"[email protected]","tel":"xxxxxxxxxxxx"}]}
However my app just crashes, the log-cat report looks like this:

From this I'm guessing the error is in the jsonParser.makeHttpRequest however I can't for the life of me figure out what's going wrong and was hoping someone brighter than I could illuminate me.
