[android-developers] Re: how to capture browser activity or callback
Sorry for the late response.
You can actually just set the activity with a scheme "myapp://"
and that schmee is uses as a url to call your activity
"myapp:///?token=1234"
And then you can use onResume to parse out the token;
URI result = getIntent.getData();
The scheme must be set in the mabifest file for that app

[android-developers] Re: how to capture browser activity or callback
I think I understand the scenario, I have an answer that works when
accessing a web URL that returns a token via a WebView.
You have an initial URL like: http://www.givemeatoken.com
that returns http://www.givemeatoken.com?yourToken=12345
I handle this by:
1. creating a WebView
2. loading the url http://www.givemeatoken.com into the WebView
3. Setting the webView client to my own webview.setWebViewClient(new
MyWebViewClient());
4. Overriding the onPageStarted method in MyWebViewClient
So MyWebViewClient looks like:
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public void onPageStarted (WebView view, String url, Bitmap
favicon){
if (url.startsWith(" http://www.givemeatoken.com?yourToken=";){
// parse the URL to get the token
}
This gives me a chance to "filter" the incoming URL. I am not sure if there
are other ways to do this.
