Spending whole day to find out that Android is not playing well with the
authentication mechanism in google data api.
The following code runs fine in a standard JavaSE environment but fails
with a java.io.SocketException in Android:
"Permission denied (maybe missing INTERNET permission)".
public class PicasaWebServiceTest {
/**
* @param args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
PicasawebService pws = new PicasawebService("xxx-picasa-1");
pws.setUserCredentials("[email protected]", "xxx"); // fine in
JavaSE, fails in Android
System.err.println("done");
}
}
Any idea how to circumvent this?
