The attached project includes a slightly modified version of HttpUtils2 and a new service named DownloadService. The purpose of DownloadService is to make it simple to download files of any size.

It is very simple to use this service.

Start a download:
B4X:
Sub btnDownload_Click
   Dim dd As DownloadData
   dd.url = link1 '<--- download link
   dd.EventName = "dd"
   dd.Target = Me
   CallSubDelayed2(DownloadService, "StartDownload", dd)
End Sub

Handle the events:
B4X:
Sub dd_Progress(Progress As Long, Total As Long)
   ProgressBar1.Progress = Progress / Total * 100
   Label1.Text = NumberFormat(Progress / 1024, 0, 0) & "KB / " & _
      NumberFormat(Total / 1024, 0, 0) & "KB"
End Sub

Sub dd_Complete(Job As HttpJob)
   Log("Job completed: " & Job.Success)
   Job.Release
End Sub

Cancel a download:
B4X:
Sub btnCancel_Click
   CallSubDelayed2(DownloadService, "CancelDownload", link1)
End Sub

DownloadService allows you to download multiple files at once and track the progress of each one of them.

The following libraries are required:
OkHttp
StringUtils
Phone (required in order to acquire a partial lock during the download)
RandomAccessFile

As this is a modified version of OkHttpUtils2 you should not reference OkHttpUtils2 library. You should instead add the three modules from the attached project. Note that the modified code is in Sub hc_ResponseSuccess.

Hi guys,

I used RDC in my app, without HttpUtils2 library, RDC doesn't work, is it possible to make download & RDC works?

Thanks in advance.

I got error message like this :
Unfortunately myapp has closed.

Myapp just quit. It was happen on login, which I use RDC to load user name & password from remote server.

I renamed HttpJob and HttpUtils2Service, RDC worked fine, but there are 2 errors
1) Downloading running but Progress bar and label that shows downloaded size was not updated
2) After Downloading running for a while, it raised an error : "Unfortunately myapp has stopped"

Downloading is point to dropbox. Use friend phone to test it, but this device not attached to pc, so don't know the logs.

My tablet is attached to PC but for a strange reason, this tablet can't even connect to www.dropbox.com, thats why, tested on friend phone.

If only running your example (without HttpUtils2 library) on phone, it was ok. I guest it was conflict with HttpUtils2 library.

Dim out As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(...) 'target folder
File.Copy2(Job.GetInputStream, out)
out.Close

Your dd_complete code is wrong.

It should be:
B4X:
Sub dd_Complete(Job As HttpJob)
   Log("Job completed: " & Job.Success)
   If Job.Success Then
   Dim OutStream As OutputStream
  Log("DownloadReady: "&Job.Tag)
  OutStream = File.OpenOutput(File.DirRootExternal, Job.Tag, False) ' Job.Tag is read to set the Original Filename we specify earlier in the creation of the Job
  File.Copy2(Job.GetInputStream,OutStream) ' save the file
  OutStream.Close
 End IF
Job.Release
End Sub
