This post show some examples to Get and Set UI elements from AsyncTask. the "Start AsyncTask" button clicked, it new and execute a AsyncTask, to get and set UI elements in various call-back method, in UI thread and background thread.
- Starting with HONEYCOMB, AsyncTask are executed on a single thread to avoid common application errors caused by parallel execution - read Run multi AsyncTask at the same time.
So call myClientTask.executeOnExecutor(AsyncTask.THREAD_POOL_EXECUTOR) if it is running on device higher than HONEYCOMB.
- For the ProgressBar, it's a simple and standard demo: update counter in doInBackground(), and call publishProgress() to call onProgressUpdate() in-directly to update the ProgressBar in UI thread.
- In onPreExecute() and onPostExecute(), it run on UI thread, so you can access UI elements directly.
- In doInBackground(), it run on background thread; to read data from EditText textIn2 and update TextView textOut2.
- In background thread, it can read UI elements, so it can call textIn2.getText() directly. (If I am wrong, please comment)
- In background thread, it CANNOT modify UI element, call runOnUiThread() and pass a Runnable to update textOut2 in UI thread.
