Android Question Cancel a HttpJob

[Fusseldieb]

Hi all,
I'm making Http-Post Requests on my app and receive them in the Sub "JobDone". How can I cancel the event, when the user presses the "BACK" button?
Because if I don't cancel the Job and the user has already exited the Activity, the Activity re-opens and causes a bug opening and closing the Activity infinitely.

Thanks in advance

Hello,

In the Activity_Pause when user close is true then Stopservice("httputils2service") should do it.

Stopservice("httputils2service") should do it.

It doesn't work. It gives me the error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: my.app.httputils2service

EDIT: I am using:

Sub ExecuteRemoteQuery(query As String, JobName As String)
        Dim jobs As HttpJob
        jobs.Initialize(JobName, Me)
        jobs.PostString("XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/include/config.php", query)
     
    End Sub

EDITIT: I have now used:

StopService(HttpUtils2Service)

But when I press the back button and the app passes through this code, the app crashes with an NullPointerException.

Excuse me, I am sorry. Don't you use httputils2 ? It has a function to cancel

i dont think that he is using the httputils2-SERVICE. I believe he uses the normal httputils2-lib (not the service)

The correct solution is to use a service to manage the downloads. This way you will be able to decide whether to show the activity or not.
