In my android app I have a button that when clicked, opens another class that makes a network call.
I am trying to check for a data connection when the button is clicked and if there isn't a connection I want to display a toast message.
Here is my onclick method as it stands:-
public void GoToZone(View v)
{
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 9) {
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
Intent myIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, CustomizedListViewStudentZone.class);
startActivityForResult(myIntent, 0);
}
else {
Context context = getApplicationContext();
CharSequence text = "There seems to be a connection issue";
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_LONG;
Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
toast.show();
}
}
How would I be able to check for a connection when the button is pressed and if there is a connection then proceed with the above and if there isn't then display a message saying "No Connection"
I am really struggling with implementing the check.
Thanks
someMethod(){
if (isNetworkAvailable()) {
Toast.makeText(this, "woohoo!", Toast.LENTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText.(this, "booo..", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
private boolean isNetworkAvailable() {
ConnectivityManager connectivityManager
= (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetworkInfo = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
return activeNetworkInfo != null && activeNetworkInfo.isConnected();
}
Source
public boolean isConnectingToInternet(){
ConnectivityManager connectivity = (ConnectivityManager) Context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
if (connectivity != null)
{
NetworkInfo[] info = connectivity.getAllNetworkInfo();
if (info != null)
for (int i = 0; i < info.length; i++) {
Log.d("Nzm", "info:"+info[i]);
if (info[i].getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED)
{
return true;
}
}
}
return false;
}
Simply use it.
Call this code from anywhere it will return you the current state of the Network.
public static boolean isInternetAvailable(Context c)
{
ConnectivityManager connectivityManager
= (ConnectivityManager) c.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetworkInfo = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
return activeNetworkInfo != null && activeNetworkInfo.getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED;
}
return true if it is connected, false otherwise. Take any desired action on its output.
Note: Its a static method. So remove static keyword if you just want to call it from within an Android Activity class.
