I am using Asynctask
in my app to retrieve data from a server.
When my app is connected to the Internet it works fine, but when I disconnect, it suddenly force-stops.
Here's my code:
try {
URL url = new URL("http://javalovers.net16.net/showdata.php");
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.connect();
switch (connection.getResponseCode()) {
case HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK:
InputStream stream = connection.getInputStream(); //here getting response
br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stream));
String line = "";
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
// buffer.append(line);
str = str + line;
}
break; // fine, go on
case HttpURLConnection.HTTP_GATEWAY_TIMEOUT:
break; // retry
case HttpURLConnection.HTTP_UNAVAILABLE:
break; // retry, server is unstable
default:
break; // abort
}
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
connection.disconnect();
try {
br.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I'm getting the error:
-FATAL EXCEPTION: AsyncTask #3 Process: kuldeep.mourya.com.smartcollege, PID: 10617 java.lang.RuntimeException: An error occurred while executing doInBackground() at android.os.AsyncTask$3.done(AsyncTask.java:309) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.finishCompletion(FutureTask.java:354) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.setException(FutureTask.java:223) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:242) at android.os.AsyncTask$SerialExecutor$1.run(AsyncTask.java:234) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1113) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:588) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:818) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void java.io.BufferedReader.close()' on a null object reference at kuldeep.mourya.com.smartcollege.FragmentProfessor.CollegeNewsFragment$JsonTask.doInBackground(CollegeNewsFragment.java:223) at kuldeep.mourya.com.smartcollege.FragmentProfessor.CollegeNewsFragment$JsonTask.doInBackground(CollegeNewsFragment.java:148) at android.os.AsyncTask$2.call(AsyncTask.java:295)
Does anyone know why I am getting this error?
