Question

I´m trying to get the remote xml content on my Android Application using the code:

URL aUrl = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection)aUrl.openConnection();
conn.setRequestMethod("GET");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setReadTimeout(15 * 1000);  // timeout for reading the google maps data: 15 secs
conn.connect();...

When I try to connect() I’m getting the exception:

NetworkOnMainThreadException  (id=830019595736) 

Any idea?

Answer 1

Do the same inside a thread:

new Thread(new Runnable() {
                 public void run() { 
                         // the same
                  }).start();

of course AsyncTask is also a way to go
