RSS feed reader run in AsyncTask

It's a long long exercise. Refer to the previous exercise "A simple RSS reader IV, start browser to open the selected feed". It work on old version of Android. But fail with android:minSdkVersion="10" or higher, caused by android.os.NetworkOnMainThreadException!

To fix it, simple move the code into AsyncTask.

Modify AndroidRssReader.java

package com.exercise.AndroidRssReader;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser;
import javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory;

import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import org.xml.sax.XMLReader;

import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.AsyncTask;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class AndroidRssReader extends ListActivity {
 
 private RSSFeed myRssFeed = null;
 
 /** Called when the activity is first created. */
 @Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.main);
  
  new MyTask().execute();
   
 }
 private class MyTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void>{

  @Override
  protected Void doInBackground(Void... arg0) {
   try {
    URL rssUrl = new URL("http://www.gov.hk/en/about/rss/govhkrss.data.xml");
    SAXParserFactory mySAXParserFactory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
    SAXParser mySAXParser = mySAXParserFactory.newSAXParser();
    XMLReader myXMLReader = mySAXParser.getXMLReader();
    RSSHandler myRSSHandler = new RSSHandler();
    myXMLReader.setContentHandler(myRSSHandler);
    InputSource myInputSource = new InputSource(rssUrl.openStream());
    myXMLReader.parse(myInputSource);
    
    myRssFeed = myRSSHandler.getFeed(); 
   } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
    e.printStackTrace(); 
   } catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
    e.printStackTrace(); 
   } catch (SAXException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
   } catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace(); 
   }
   
   return null;
  }

  @Override
  protected void onPostExecute(Void result) {
   if (myRssFeed!=null)
   {
    TextView feedTitle = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.feedtitle);
    TextView feedDescribtion = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.feeddescribtion);
    TextView feedPubdate = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.feedpubdate);
    TextView feedLink = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.feedlink);
    feedTitle.setText(myRssFeed.getTitle());
    feedDescribtion.setText(myRssFeed.getDescription());
    feedPubdate.setText(myRssFeed.getPubdate());
    feedLink.setText(myRssFeed.getLink());
    
    ArrayAdapter<RSSItem> adapter =
      new ArrayAdapter<RSSItem>(getApplicationContext(),
        android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,myRssFeed.getList());
    setListAdapter(adapter); 
    
   }else{
    
    TextView textEmpty = (TextView)findViewById(android.R.id.empty);
    textEmpty.setText("No Feed Found!");
   }
   
   super.onPostExecute(result);
  }
  
 }
 
 @Override
 protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
  
  Uri feedUri = Uri.parse(myRssFeed.getItem(position).getLink());
  Intent myIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, feedUri);
  startActivity(myIntent);
 }
}

In the original layout, the ListView without list (before AsyncTask finished) will show "No Data". So we also modify it to "waiting", it will be updated after AsyncTask finished if no RSS feed found.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="@string/hello" />
    <TextView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"

</LinearLayout>
