I am looking for a way to return the response I get in loopJ AsyncHttpClient onFinish or onSuccess or onFailure. As of now I have this piece of code:
**jsonParse.java file**
public class jsonParse {
static JSONObject jObj = null;
static String jsonString = "";
AsyncHttpClient client;
public JSONObject getJSONObj() {
RequestParams params;
params = new RequestParams();
params.add("username", "user");
params.add("password", "password");
client = new AsyncHttpClient();
client.post("http://example.com", params, new TextHttpResponseHandler() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(int i, Header[] headers, String response) {
jsonString = response;
Log.d("onSuccess: ", jsonString);
}
@Override
public void onFailure(int statusCode, Header[] headers, String response, Throwable e) {
if (statusCode == 401) {
jsonString = response;
Log.d("onFailure: ", jsonString);
}
}
});
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(jsonString);
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("Exception", "JSONException " + e.toString());
}
return jObj;
}
}
When I invoke the code:
JSONParser jsonParser = new JSONParser();
jsonParser.getJSONFromUrl();
I get the JSONException before onSuccess or onFailure method finishes the http post.
I have noticed that, on the first invoke: Log.e("Exception", "JSONException " + e.toString()); is getting logged and then Log.d("onSuccess: ", jsonString); logs the value as they are in the sync state.
On the second invoke: jObj = new JSONObject(jsonString); gets executed successfully and I get desired return value for the method, because by that time onSuccess method would have already assigned the value to the variable jsonString.
Now what I am exactly looking for is a way to prevent premature return of jObj from the method.
Is there anyway to make the method, getJSONObj, wait for the completion of AsyncHttpClient task, assign the variable into jsonString, create the JSONObject and return it?
Thanks in advance! Cheers!
