I was wondering if I could make it open But NOT open the android browser, I just need it to visit: (pretend this is the ip) http;//91.91.91.91:2228?1, where it will trigger action on my arduino mega. I have tried to get it just to do this with this code
onclick(Intent websiteIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri uri = Uri.parse("http;//91.9.91.91:?1");
websiteIntent.setData(uri);
startActivity(websiteIntent);)
but I don't know how to get it to do so
A HttpClient will allow you to call an arbitrary URL within your app:
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet("http;//91.9.91.91:?1");
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
Don't forget to wrap in a try catch though.
edit:
new Thread(){
public void run(){
try{
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet("http;//91.9.91.91:?1");
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
}catch(Exception e){
// Handle the exception
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
};
