I'm trying to download a large file from my Yahoo! web site server which apparently is setup (not by me) to disconnect downloads if they are not completed within 100 seconds. The file is small enough to usually successfully transfer. On the occasions when the data rate is slow and the download gets disconnected, is there a way to resume the URLConnection at the file offset where the disconnection occurred? Here's the code:
// Setup connection.
URL url = new URL(strUrl[0]);
URLConnection cx = url.openConnection();
cx.connect();
// Setup streams and buffers.
int lengthFile = cx.getContentLength();
InputStream input = new BufferedInputStream(url.openStream());
OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream(strUrl[1]);
byte data[] = new byte[1024];
// Download file.
for (total=0; (count=input.read(data, 0, 1024)) != -1; total+=count) {
publishProgress((int)(total*100/lengthFile));
output.write(data, 0, count);
Log.d("AsyncDownloadFile", "bytes: " + total);
}
// Close streams.
output.flush();
output.close();
input.close();
Try using a "Range" request header:
// Open connection to URL.
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
// Specify what portion of file to download.
connection.setRequestProperty("Range", "bytes=" + downloaded + "-");
// here "downloaded" is the data length already previously downloaded.
// Connect to server.
connection.connect();
Having done that, you can seek
at a given point (just before the length of your download data, say X
) and start writing the newly downloaded data there. Be sure to use the same value X
for the range header.

Here's an example code that you can use:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class HttpUrlDownload {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String strUrl = "http://VRSDLSCEN001:80//DLS//lib//clics.jar";
String DESTINATION_PATH = "clics.jar";
int count = 0;
while (true) {
count++;
if (download(strUrl, DESTINATION_PATH) == true || count > 20) {
break;
}
}
}
public static boolean download(String strUrl, String DESTINATION_PATH) {
BufferedInputStream in = null;
FileOutputStream fos = null;
BufferedOutputStream bout = null;
URLConnection connection = null;
int downloaded = 0;
try {
System.out.println("mark ... download start");
URL url = new URL(strUrl);
connection = url.openConnection();
File file=new File(DESTINATION_PATH);
if(file.exists()){
downloaded = (int) file.length();
}
if (downloaded == 0) {
connection.connect();
}
else {
connection.setRequestProperty("Range", "bytes=" + downloaded + "-");
connection.connect();
}
try {
in = new BufferedInputStream(connection.getInputStream());
} catch (IOException e) {
int responseCode = 0;
try {
responseCode = ((HttpURLConnection)connection).getResponseCode();
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
if (responseCode == 416) {
return true;
} else {
e.printStackTrace();
return false;
}
}
fos=(downloaded==0)? new FileOutputStream(DESTINATION_PATH): new FileOutputStream(DESTINATION_PATH,true);
bout = new BufferedOutputStream(fos, 1024);
byte[] data = new byte[1024];
int x = 0;
while ((x = in.read(data, 0, 1024)) >= 0) {
bout.write(data, 0, x);
}
in.close();
bout.flush();
bout.close();
return false;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return false;
} finally {
if (in != null) {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
}
}
