progressDialoge not Updating

i have been using AsyncTask to download a certain file and went through a few tutorials and just failed to get the progress bar to move with the download. the code is and AsyncTask that calls a method to do the HTTP connection and then comes back to assort the data in a proper way to manipulate it for the app
this is my AsynTask that is on the MainActivity
private class getFood extends AsyncTask<Void, Integer, Cursor> {
private ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;
#Override
protected Cursor doInBackground(Void... params) {

String site = "https://afternoon-ridge-50060.herokuapp.com/allsnacks";

You have to publish the progress and then only the Integer... values has proper values.
Something like:
#Override
protected String doInBackground(Context... params) {
//Part-1 of the task done
publishProgress(20);
//Part-2 of the task done
publishProgress(50);
//Part-3 of the task done
publishProgress(100);
return “success”;
}

As per android documentation:
"onProgressUpdate(Progress...), invoked on the UI thread after a call to publishProgress(Progress...). The timing of the execution is undefined. This method is used to display any form of progress in the user interface while the background computation is still executing. For instance, it can be used to animate a progress bar or show logs in a text field"
use it

Value Connection of type java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject in getting objects from the database

I am trying to retrieve json records from the database. On retrieving the GET request over the browser my json responce is of this structure and returning appropriate data
[{"name":"OOGOGOGO","address":"OPOPOPOP","gender":"OPOPOPOP","email":"OPOPOPOP","phonenumber":"OPOPOPOP","nationality":"OPOOPOPO","fk":1}]
I am calling the endpoint url in the assync task doinbackground and this is the endpoint
url = new URL("http://10.0.2.2:88/example/web/app_dev.php/get/1");
the above endpoint returns 405 status code error. On attempting to catch a json exception I get this error
error gotten org.json.JSONException: Value Connection of type java.lang.String cannot be converted
confused on what could be wrong with this endpoint as it returns a 200 ok json response from postman. Kindly assist

Here's the code snippet.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
// Fetch network data
new NetworkAsyncTask().execute("http://www.mocky.io/v2/591f32f4110000d10307b4c7");
}
private class NetworkAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
protected String doInBackground(String... strings) {
try {

HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.connect();
InputStream in = conn.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
stringBuilder.append(line);
}
return stringBuilder.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
return null;

Google Maps API and custom polyline route between Markers

I'd like to make a custom route for an android app, I'm not sure which API should I use and if it is compatible with Java.
As far as I know I need to use waypoints to make a route (I don't need to know the distance between the two points, just to make a route).
The objective is to choose an option from a menu on the side of the map and show one of the custom routes between two Markers.

You can do this using the Google Maps API v2 for Android, and the Google Maps Directions webservice API
For getting started with the Google Maps API, there are plenty of other good answers already. See here for a complete working example of a simple map Activity. Note that you'll also need to get an API key set up to work with your project.
As for using the Google Maps Directions webservice API, you should first read the documentation. You can use an API key and enable the API in your developer console, but it still works currently without using an API key.
Here is the basic code you'll need in order to use the Google Maps API to draw a Polyline between two points, note that the points returned from the API are encoded in a base 64 encoded String that needs to be decoded.
First, ensure that your project includes the Google Maps Utility library, which will be used to decode the base64 encoded polyline:
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.maps.android:android-maps-utils:0.5+'
//.......
}
Here is the AsyncTask, that you should give two LatLng points to when calling it.
You would call the AsyncTask with two LatLng objects, for example between two Markers:
new GetDirectionsAsync().execute(markerOne.getPosition(), markerTwo.getPosition());
Here is the AsyncTask code:
class GetDirectionsAsync extends AsyncTask<LatLng, Void, List<LatLng>> {
JSONParser jsonParser;
String DIRECTIONS_URL = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json";
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
}
#Override
protected List<LatLng> doInBackground(LatLng... params) {
LatLng start = params[0];
LatLng end = params[1];
HashMap<String, String> points = new HashMap<>();
points.put("origin", start.latitude + "," + start.longitude);
points.put("destination", end.latitude + "," + end.longitude);
jsonParser = new JSONParser();
JSONObject obj = jsonParser.makeHttpRequest(DIRECTIONS_URL, "GET", points, true);
if (obj == null) return null;
try {
List<LatLng> list = null;
JSONArray routeArray = obj.getJSONArray("routes");
JSONObject routes = routeArray.getJSONObject(0);
JSONObject overviewPolylines = routes.getJSONObject("overview_polyline");
String encodedString = overviewPolylines.getString("points");
list = PolyUtil.decode(encodedString);
return list;
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(List<LatLng> pointsList) {
if (pointsList == null) return;
if (line != null){
line.remove();
}
PolylineOptions options = new PolylineOptions().width(5).color(Color.MAGENTA).geodesic(true);
for (int i = 0; i < pointsList.size(); i++) {
LatLng point = pointsList.get(i);
options.add(point);
}
line = mMap.addPolyline(options);
}
}
The AsyncTask references some member variables of the Activity, namely the Polyline and the GoogleMap, the Activity definition would look like this:
public class MapsActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback{
GoogleMap mMap;
Polyline line;
//.....
Here's the JSONParser class used in this example, note that this is a modified version updated for android-23 that I wrote a blog post about:
public class JSONParser {
String charset = "UTF-8";
HttpURLConnection conn;
DataOutputStream wr;
StringBuilder result;
URL urlObj;
JSONObject jObj = null;
StringBuilder sbParams;
String paramsString;
public JSONObject makeHttpRequest(String url, String method,
HashMap<String, String> params, boolean encode) {
sbParams = new StringBuilder();
int i = 0;
for (String key : params.keySet()) {
try {
if (i != 0){
sbParams.append("&");
}
if (encode) {
sbParams.append(key).append("=")
.append(URLEncoder.encode(params.get(key), charset));
}
else{
sbParams.append(key).append("=")
.append(params.get(key));
}
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
i++;
}
if (method.equals("POST")) {
// request method is POST
try {
urlObj = new URL(url);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) urlObj.openConnection();
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Accept-Charset", charset);
conn.setReadTimeout(10000);
conn.setConnectTimeout(15000);
conn.connect();
paramsString = sbParams.toString();
wr = new DataOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(paramsString);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
else if(method.equals("GET")){
// request method is GET
if (sbParams.length() != 0) {
url += "?" + sbParams.toString();
}
Log.d("JSONParser", "full GET url: " + url);
try {
urlObj = new URL(url);
conn = (HttpURLConnection) urlObj.openConnection();
conn.setDoOutput(false);
conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
conn.setRequestProperty("Accept-Charset", charset);
conn.setConnectTimeout(15000);
conn.connect();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
try {
//Receive the response from the server
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
String line;
result = new StringBuilder();
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
result.append(line);
}
Log.d("JSON Parser", "result: " + result.toString());
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
conn.disconnect();
// try parse the string to a JSON object
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(result.toString());
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}
// return JSON Object
return jObj;
}
}
Result of drawing a route between two Markers:

Cannot connect to vtiger database

I am trying to implement vtiger's API to connect my android application to it's server. I have added the API to the libs folder and then compile the .jar file. I then use the documentation to connect to the server in java.
boolean result = true;
WSClient client = new WSClient("http://en.vtiger.com/wip");
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
result = client.doLogin("username", "Accesskey");
if(!result)
{
System.out.println("Login failed!");
System.out.println(client.lastError());
}
else
{
System.out.println("Login Successful");
}
}
However, I always get the Login failed and no error present. The problem is that when I open the WSClient.java class from inside the .jar, the program states that no sources can be found. I have downloaded these files from http://forge.vtiger.com/frs/?group_id=181&release_id=573 and do not know what to attach as a source. Maybe this is why I cannot connect to the server since I am using the right username and access key supplied by vtiger.

Try this:-
Its an example based on https://demo.vtiger.com/ for login
public class Login extends Activity {
//URL to get JSON Array
private static String url = "https://demo.vtiger.com/webservice.php?operation=getchallenge&username=admin";

Change the variables as per your need
you don't need to use any additional jar files.

JSON Object returns a null pointer

I want to insert some items into the database. In the main activity, I retrieve information from the user and pass it to the another class to do some parsing. My JSONObject keeps showing up as NULL.
I am sorry if I am not clear with the question . I've tried to explain it as much as possible.
Below is the code your inputs are welcome
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
/** THE FOLLOWING STRINGS WILL BE DISPLAYED IN LOGCAT */
final String TAG = "########-------MAIN ACTIVITY: LOGIN--------######";
final String URL = "http://46.51.193.32/timereport/ses/sessions";
UserHelper userAdapter;
UserHelper db;
EditText edit_password,edit_username,edit_company;
String regName;
int duration = Toast.LENGTH_LONG;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
db = new UserHelper(this);
userAdapter = new UserHelper(this);
edit_password = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.password);
edit_username = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.user_name);
edit_company = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.company_string);
Button login = (Button)findViewById(R.id.login_button);
login.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
JSONObject jsonobj = new JSONObject();
try{
JSONObject subJson = new JSONObject();
subJson.put("username", edit_username.getText().toString());
subJson.put("password", edit_password.getText().toString());
subJson.put("company", edit_company.getText().toString());
jsonobj.put("user", subJson);
}
catch(JSONException e) {
Log.i("","#####-----error at catch jsonexception-----#####");
}
HandleJSON.SendHttpPost(URL, jsonobj);
String regNameSplit[] = regName.split("-");
try{
userAdapter.openDatabase();
long id = db.insertIntoDatabase(edit_username.getText().toString(),edit_company.getText().toString(), edit_password.getText().toString(),regNameSplit[0], regNameSplit[2]);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "You have successfully logged in as: " +"\n" +regNameSplit[0], duration).show();
Log.i(TAG, "Printing value of id which will be inserted only to remove warnings "+id);
userAdapter.closeDatabase();
}
catch(SQLiteException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
}
This is the class to which I am sending the JSON object to be parsed
public class HandleJSON{
UserHelper userAdapter;
private static final String TAG = "&&----HTTPClient-----**";

sb.append(line + "\n");
}

catch (IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
} finally{
try {

} catch (IOException e){

}
}
return sb.toString();
}
}
I've just added some of the code that was missing at the MainActivity,
String regNameSplit[] = regName.split("-");
keeps showing up as null

Instead of your convertStreamToString() method try using system provided EntityUtils.toString(entity).
IMPORTANT: do not catch generic Exception, this hides unchecked (runtime) exceptions. You might be hiding the JSONException that happens in JSONObject constructor.
Update:
You are calling SendHttpPost and not assigning result to variable:
HandleJSON.SendHttpPost(URL, jsonobj);
should be:
regName = HandleJSON.SendHttpPost(URL, jsonobj);

I don't see anything wrong with this, could you tell me what is the use of regname ?
at your mainactivity just change the following:
regname = HandleJSON.SendHttpPost(URL, jsonobj);
Your not calling back regname to be assigned to name and sessionid that you are returning at the sendhttppost.
