I have this little code here when click a link on webview that is a link to a file, in this case .mp4. this code will go to default web browser and request app that can view this file type.
myWebView.setDownloadListener(new DownloadListener() {
public void onDownloadStart(String url, String userAgent,
String contentDisposition, String mimetype,
long contentLength) {
Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setData(Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(i);
}
});
What i want is when i click that file link, it create a dialog that ask weather to download or view the file. If click download, i want to use DownloadManager class to handle it and download that file in the background and alert when completed. And if click view, i want to create intent that ask for app that can view this file without going to the web browser.
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, final String url) {
if (url.endsWith(".mp4")) {
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context);
builder.setMessage(R.string.dialog_title)
.setCancelable(false)
.setPositiveButton(R.string.dialog_download, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(Uri.parse(url));
request.setDescription("Some descrition");
request.setTitle("Some title");
// in order for this if to run, you must use the android 3.2 to compile your app
request.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, "name-of-the-file.ext");
// get download service and enqueue file
DownloadManager manager = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
manager.enqueue(request);
}
})
.setNegativeButton(R.string.dialog_play, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
myWebView.setDownloadListener(new DownloadListener() {
public void onDownloadStart(String url, String userAgent,
String contentDisposition, String mimetype,
long contentLength) {
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(url), "video/mp4");
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
});
AlertDialog alert = builder.create();
alert.show();
}
return false;
}
}
Now i got this code that prompt user to download or play mp4 file that the user clicked. But when i click Play or Download it is work until i click the link the second time, what's wrong with the code above if anyone can correct this please. thanks.
