The code pasted below gets an exception on tha line that says... InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream()); It's an IO exception that says: java.net.UnknownHostException: www.android.com
I checked and that is a valid url. I got the original code from the android docs on HttpURLConnection although I had to fix serveral bugs in the docs code. Why am I getting this exception? thanks, Gary import java.io.BufferedInputStream; import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStream; import java.net.HttpURLConnection; import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.net.URL; import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; public class HelloAndroid extends Activity { /** Called when the activity is first created. */ @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main); HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null; try { URL url = new URL("http://www.android.com/"); urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream()); readStream(in); } catch (MalformedURLException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } finally { urlConnection.disconnect(); } } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
