The first one still gives me an IOException. It forces me to add
throws or a couple of try/catch's for error handling but either way it
gets IOException. This is the code for that:
public String getPrice(String symbol) throws ClientProtocolException,
IOException {
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet get = null;
get = new HttpGet("http://oxavi.com/price.php";);
String buffer = null;
HttpResponse response = client.execute(get);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
int status = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
InputStream in = entity.getContent();
for (int i = in.read(); i != -1; i = in.read()) {
buffer += (char) i;
}
in.close();
if (entity != null) {
entity.consumeContent();
}
return buffer;
}
When I run it I do it like this:
String newprice;
try {
newprice =
getPrice(DbAdapter.KEY_SYMBOL);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
newprice = "CPE";
} catch (IOException e) {
newprice = "IOE";
}
Which results in a newprice of IOE.
The second code also doesnt work for me. I had to change alot to get
rid of the errors, so here is mine:
public String getPrice(String symbol) {
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet get = null;
get = new HttpGet("http://oxavi.com/price.php";);
HttpResponse response = client.execute(get);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
int status = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
InputStream in = entity.getContent();
Document document = getDocument(in);
in.close();
if (entity != null) {
entity.consumeContent();
}
}
The only problem is that it does not recognize getDocument(), it tells
me to create a method for it. And I also don't understand how to
return a string from all of this, do I have to convert the document to
one after it gets it?
