Question

My title is pretty self explanatory. Here’s my code:

 public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    private WebView browse;
    private TextView t;
    private String address="http://www.google.com";
    private int refresh, clearcache, time, refreshTime, cacheTime;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        SharedPreferences gPrefs = PreferenceManager
                .getDefaultSharedPreferences(getBaseContext());
        address = gPrefs.getString("Address", "http://www.google.com");
        refresh = gPrefs.getInt("Refresh", 1);
        clearcache = gPrefs.getInt("ClearCache", 1);
        time = gPrefs.getInt("Time", 0);

        switch (time) {
        case 0:
            refreshTime = refresh * 60 * 60 * 1000;
            break;
        case 1:
            refreshTime = refresh * 60 * 1000;
            break;
        case 2:
            refreshTime = refresh * 1000;
            break;
        }

        switch (time) {
        case 0:
            cacheTime = clearcache * 60 * 60 * 1000;
            break;
        case 1:
            cacheTime = clearcache * 60 * 1000;
            break;
        case 2:
            cacheTime = clearcache * 1000;
            break;
        }

        browse = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
        t = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.t);

        browse.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        browse.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
        browse.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
        browse.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
        browse.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        browse.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
        browse.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
        browse.setScrollbarFadingEnabled(true);
        browse.getSettings().setLoadsImagesAutomatically(true);
        browse.getSettings().setCacheMode(WebSettings.LOAD_CACHE_ELSE_NETWORK);
        browse.getSettings().setAppCacheMaxSize(1024 * 1024 * 8);

        browse.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {

            @Override
            public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
                t.setVisibility(TextView.VISIBLE);
            }

            @Override
            public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
                // do your stuff here
                super.onPageFinished(view, url);
                t.setVisibility(TextView.GONE);
            }
        });

        try {
            browse.loadUrl(address);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        refreshRRryan();
        cacheRRryan();
    }

    final Handler refreshhandler = new Handler();
    final Timer refreshtimer = new Timer();
    final Runnable refreshdoA = new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {

    };

    }

    @Override
    public File getCacheDir() {
        // NOTE: this method is used in Android 2.1

        return getApplicationContext().getCacheDir();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
        MenuInflater blowUp = getMenuInflater();
        blowUp.inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {

        switch (item.getItemId()) {
        case R.id.aboutUs:
            Intent i = new Intent("ABOUT");
            startActivity(i);
            break;
        case R.id.preferences:
            Intent p = new Intent("PREFS");

            break;
        }
        return false;
    }

}

And here’s logcat:

And I’m pretty sure my manifest is fine because the activity runs the first time.

Help me please.

Answer 1

refresh = gPrefs.getInt("Refresh", 1);
clearcache = gPrefs.getInt("ClearCache", 1);
time = gPrefs.getInt("Time", 0);

The first time the app run, it uses the default value you use (1,1,0) above.

But the second time, it certainly uses the data you’ve saved from a user input perhaps.

You must be saving it as a string and trying to retrieve it as an int…
