I red about it and I understand its about using internet but I don’t know how to solve it?
as you can see I read XML by HTTP get in my XML function class and it returns XML in string here where every thing crashed

Do I have to change the class in
String xml=XMLfunctions.getXMLFlightInfo(FromCity);

its the same method as

          String xml=XMLfunctions.getXMLFlightAva(FromCity,ToCity);

this is the class

             public class XMLfunctions {
             String TAG;



public final static Document XMLfromString(String xml){


    Document doc = null;

    DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    try {

        DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();

        InputSource is = new InputSource();
        is.setCharacterStream(new StringReader(xml));
        doc = db.parse(is); 

    } catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
        System.out.println("XML parse error: " + e.getMessage());
        return null;
    } catch (SAXException e) {
        System.out.println("Wrong XML file structure: " + e.getMessage());
        return null;
    } catch (IOException e) {
        System.out.println("I/O exeption: " + e.getMessage());
        return null;
    }

    return doc;

}

Answer 1

StrictMode.ThreadPolicy was introduced since API Level 9 and the default behaviour had been changed in API Level 11, which in short, does not allow network operation (include HttpClient and HttpUrlConnection) get executed on UI thread.

The correct strategy is move network operation off the UI thread, for example using AsyncTask.

hope this help.
