I'm using the code in this fashion:
try{
URL myURL = new URL("http://www.indulec.ie/weather.txt";);
URLConnection conn = myURL.openConnection();
conn.connect();
BufferedReader is = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader
(conn.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));
FileOutputStream fOut = openFileOutput("news.txt",
MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut, "UTF-8");
String istr;
while ((istr = is.readLine()) != null)
osw.write(istr+"\n");
osw.close();
setContentView(R.layout.latestnews);
String text = new String(istr);
TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.somenews);
tv.setText(text);
}
catch ( IOException e )
{
Log.d(TAG, "Can not connect to the target server!" );
try {
throw new IOException();
} catch (IOException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
but I'm just getting an error saying the app has stopped unexpectedly.
The whole setContentView() bit is wrong but i'm just not sure how to
access the news.txt file once it has been saved in the devices data
files.
