How can I make my spinner not start automatically? I have seen a few solutions on here but they confused me. When the activity starts the download starts immediately and that is not what needs to happen. How can I allow the user to make the selection instead of it downloading the first item automatically?
Here is the code:
public class SpinnerActivity extends Activity {
public static final int DIALOG_DOWNLOAD_PROGRESS = 0;
private ProgressDialog mProgressDialog;
Spinner spDownloadFrom;
private ArrayAdapter<CharSequence> spinnerArrayAdapter;
String url[] = {
"http://www.becker.cl/bases.pdf",
"http://www.pitt.edu/documents/campusmap0607.pdf",
"http://www.aara.ca/reg3317/web_page_doc.pdf",
"http://www.dataprotection.ie/documents/guidance/GuidanceFinance.pdf",
"http://www.fmbb2012.com/JumpingQualifica1.pdf",
"http://www.consulatdumaroc.ca/coloniefh22012.pdf",
"http://www.rgrdlaw.com/media/cases/140_Complaint.pdf" };
String name[] = {"bases.pdf", "campusmap0607.pdf", "web_page_doc.pdf",
"GuidanceFinance.pdf", "JumpingQualifica1.pdf",
"coloniefh22012.pdf", "140_Complaint.pdf", };
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mProgressDialog = new ProgressDialog(SpinnerActivity.this);
mProgressDialog.setMessage("Please be patient, file downloading...");
mProgressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
mProgressDialog.setMax(100);
mProgressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_HORIZONTAL);
spDownloadFrom = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.Spinner01);
spinnerArrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, name);
spinnerArrayAdapter
.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spDownloadFrom.setAdapter(spinnerArrayAdapter);
spDownloadFrom.setOnItemSelectedListener(new SpinnerListener(
spDownloadFrom));
}
public class SpinnerListener implements OnItemSelectedListener {
Spinner sp;
public SpinnerListener(View v) {
sp = (Spinner) findViewById(v.getId());
}
@Override
public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// Call to download class
startDownload(arg2);
}
@Override
public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
private void startDownload(int position) {
DownloadFile downloadFile = new DownloadFile(position);
downloadFile.execute(url[position]);
}
class DownloadFile extends AsyncTask<String, Integer, String> { // put your
// download
// code
private int position;
public DownloadFile(int position) {
this.position = position;
}
@Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
mProgressDialog.show();
}
@Override
protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... progress) {
super.onProgressUpdate(progress);
mProgressDialog.setProgress(progress[0]);
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... aurl) {
try {
URL url = new URL(aurl[0]);
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
connection.connect();
int fileLength = connection.getContentLength();
int tickSize = 2 * fileLength / 100;
int nextProgress = tickSize;
Log.d(
"ANDRO_ASYNC", "Lenght of file: " + fileLength);
InputStream input = new BufferedInputStream(url.openStream());
String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
+ "/Android/Data/"
+ getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + "/files/";
File file = new File(path);
file.mkdirs();
File outputFile = new File(file, name[position]);
OutputStream output = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
byte data[] = new byte[1024 * 1024];
long total = 0;
int count;
while ((count = input.read(data)) != -1) {
total += count;
if (total >= nextProgress) {
nextProgress = (int) ((total / tickSize + 1) * tickSize);
this.publishProgress((int) (total * 100 / fileLength));
}
output.write(data, 0, count);
}
output.flush();
output.close();
input.close();
mProgressDialog.dismiss();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Spinner", "exception", e);
}
return null;
}
protected void onProgressUpdate(String... progress) {
Log.d("Downloading", progress[0]);
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String unused) {
mProgressDialog.dismiss();
File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
+ "/Android/Data/"
+ getApplicationContext().getPackageName() + "/files/"
+ name[position]);
Intent testIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
testIntent.setType("application/pdf");
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(file);
intent.setDataAndType(uri, "application/pdf");
try {
startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Toast.makeText(SpinnerActivity.this,
"No Application Available to View PDF",
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
}
