Android Question httputils settings and error messages

[JdV]

Hi

Is it possible to alter the settings for httpjobs (in particular the timeout)? If so, how?

Can the error messages that are reported by the library in the form of toastmessages (such as when a URL cannot be reached) be suppressed or trapped in some other way? If so, how?

Regards

Joe

If so, how?

Comment the line which creates the Toast in your source.

Maybe you need to upload your project or give us more info.

My apps only show toast when using httputils when I created them to show

Thanks for the quick response.

I'm referring to the version of httputils that's included in the IDE, not the code module version - which you're right I could edit to remove the toastmessages.

Give me link to the one you are refering to please
But as time of today you should replace your http and httputils with okHTTP and okHTTPUtils2
I´m relatively sure the most uptodate versions do not add any Toasts.

As seen here the Toast is part of the example-code...

Sub JobDone (Job As HttpJob)
   Log("JobName = " & Job.JobName & ", Success = " & Job.Success)
   If Job.Success = True Then
      Select Job.JobName
         Case "Job1", "Job2"
            'print the result to the logs
            Log(Job.GetString)
         Case "Job3"
            'show the downloaded image
            Activity.SetBackgroundImage(Job.GetBitmap)
      End Select
   Else
      Log("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage)
      ToastMessageShow("Error: " & Job.ErrorMessage, True)
   End If
   Job.Release
End Sub

in particular the timeout

Dim job As HttpJob
job.Initialize("job1", Me)
job.Download("https://abc.com/xyz.asp")
job.GetRequest.Timeout = 60000

Please note to call the GetRequest.Timeout AFTER calling job.Download (or any other similar method)

I have switched to using the okhttp and okhttputils2 libraries and it still produces a toastmessage if there's an error.

HttpUtils2 doesn't show any toast message. Check your JobDone code.

Thanks Erel and DonManfred for your suggestions.
