I am trying to pass a command to my Arduino device using HTTP .

  • 0

I am trying to pass a command to my Arduino device using HTTP. The device receives the command, and it performs as expected. But I am getting an error in HttpClient.execute() as I mentioned below.. How do I correct the code?

protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {
    try {
        Log.i("CallArduino ","In doInBackground");
        final int TIMEOUT_MILLISEC = 1000;
        HttpParams httpParams = new BasicHttpParams();
        HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParams, TIMEOUT_MILLISEC);
        HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParams, TIMEOUT_MILLISEC);
        HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParams);
        //    URL="http://www.google.co.in";
        HttpGet get = new HttpGet(URL);

        Log.i("CallArduino ","before get");
                        responseGet = client.execute(get);
        Log.i("CallArduino ","after get");
        resEntityGet = responseGet.getEntity();

        Log.i("CallArduino ","in PostExecute");
        if (resEntityGet != null) {
            InputStream is = resEntityGet.getContent();
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is,"iso-8859-1"),8);

            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            sb.append(reader.readLine() + "\n");
            String line="0";
            while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                sb.append(line + "\n");
            }
            is.close();
            result=sb.toString();
        }
    }
    catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    finally{

    }

Output:

    It may be possible that your Internet Connection Speed is weak. You can increase your Timeout Interval by using following method.

    HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(params, 1000);
