I develop AndroidApps with AndroidStudio I start to do a simple HttpPost Request and I had a problems, all post that I could find do this:
private void CheckLoguin_Request(String User, String Pass){
//Declaration of variables
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost Request = new HttpPost(url_Loguin);
HttpResponse Response;
List<NameValuePair> BodyRequest_Elements = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
BodyRequest_Elements.add(new BasicNameValuePair("user_name", User));
BodyRequest_Elements.add(new BasicNameValuePair("user_passwd", Pass));
Request.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(BodyRequest_Elements));
Response = httpClient.execute(Request);
// writing response to log
Log.d("Http Response:", Response.toString());
}
But when I try to debugg App Android Studio give me a 2 errors in this lines:
new UrlEncodedFormEntity(BodyRequest_Elements) //Error:(40, 27) error: unreported exception UnsupportedEncodingException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
Response = httpClient.execute(Request); //Error:(41, 38) error: unreported exception IOException; must be caught or declared to be thrown
It's possible I need install more libraries or support libraries? What I do bad? Anyone can helps me? Thanks in advance and sorry for my English!
PD1: If you need more info or code advise me!

Using HttpURLConnection class we need to open BufferedWritter to insert our entity values as the following code:
//Declaration of variables
private List<NameValuePair> ListOfValues;
...
public Check_Loguin_Request(Context cx,String url, List<NameValuePair> ListOfValues)
{
this.cx = cx;
this.Url = url;
this.ListOfValues= ListOfValues;
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... strings) {
//Declaration of variables
InputStream is = null;
String Result = "";
URL urll = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) urll.openConnection();
conn.setReadTimeout(10000);
conn.setConnectTimeout(15000);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setDoOutput(true);
OutputStream os = conn.getOutputStream();
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8"));
writer.write(Build_HttpBody(ListOfValues));
writer.flush();
writer.close();
os.close();
// Starts request
conn.connect();
int ResponseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
if (ResponseCode == 200) {
is = conn.getInputStream();
String EntityResult = ReadResponse_HttpURLConnection(is);
}
else {
throw new RuntimeException("Invalid Status Code");
}
}
Attention the DefaultHttpClient class is deprecated (2011)
For more info following this link.
Try to use this following code, remember for this case always use AsyncTask:
private class Check_Loguin_Request extends AsyncTask <String,Void,String>{
Context cx;
String Url;
List<NameValuePair> BodyRequest_Elements;
public Check_Loguin_Request(Context cx,String url, List<NameValuePair> ListOfValues)
{
this.cx = cx;
this.Url = url;
this.BodyRequest_Elements = ListOfValues;
}
private String convertStreamToString(InputStream is) {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return sb.toString();
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... strings) {
//Declaration of variables
DefaultHttpClient httpClient;
HttpPost Request = new HttpPost(url_Loguin);
HttpResponse Response;
HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
httpParameters.setParameter(CoreProtocolPNames.PROTOCOL_VERSION, HttpVersion.HTTP_1_1);
// Set the timeout in milliseconds until a connection is established.
// The default value is zero, that means the timeout is not used.
int timeoutConnection = 3000;
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutConnection);
// Set the default socket timeout (SO_TIMEOUT)
// in milliseconds which is the timeout for waiting for data.
int timeoutSocket = 5000;
HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters, timeoutSocket);
httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
try {
HttpEntity entity = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(BodyRequest_Elements);
Request.setHeader(entity.getContentType());
Request.setEntity(entity);
Response = httpClient.execute(Request);
if(Response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() == 200){
String EntityResult = EntityUtils.toString(Response.getEntity());
//HttpEntity EntityResult = Response.getEntity();
//InputStream iStream = EntityResult.getContent();
//JSONObject json = new JSONObject(convertStreamToString(iStream));
EntityResult = EntityResult.replaceAll("[()]", "");
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(EntityResult);
String Result = json.optString("code").toString();
return Result;
}
else{
throw new RuntimeException("Invalid Status Code");
}
}
catch (Exception ex){
Log.getStackTraceString(ex);
return ex.toString();
}
}
}
You are obviously not handling the IO exceptions being thrown from the constructor:
see: Android docs on UrlEncodedFormEntity
What puzzles me is that your IDE is not reporting this, or how this code even compiles, let alone runs/debugs.
Edit:
If you are new at this stuff, maybe it would be worth to take a look at:
Android Volley , which is a quite simple yet effective library developed by Google for Android networking.
