Why does my Sax Parser produce no results after using InputStream Read?
- by Andy Barlow
Hello,
I have this piece of code which I'm hoping will be able to tell me how much data I have downloaded (and soon put it in a progress bar), and then parse the results through my Sax Parser. If I comment out basically everything above the //xr.parse(new InputSource(request.getInputStream())); line and swap the xr.parse's over, it works fine. But at the moment, my Sax parser tells me I have nothing. Is it something to do with is.read (buffer) section?
Also, just as a note, request is a HttpURLConnection with various signatures.
/*Input stream to read from our connection*/
InputStream is = request.getInputStream();
/*we make a 2 Kb buffer to accelerate the download, instead of reading the file a byte at once*/
byte [ ] buffer = new byte [ 2048 ] ;
/*How many bytes do we have already downloaded*/
int totBytes,bytes,sumBytes = 0;
totBytes = request.getContentLength () ;
while ( true ) {
/*How many bytes we got*/
bytes = is.read (buffer);
/*If no more byte, we're done with the download*/
if ( bytes <= 0 ) break;
sumBytes+= bytes;
Log.v("XML", sumBytes + " of " + totBytes + " " + ( ( float ) sumBytes/ ( float ) totBytes ) *100 + "% done" );
}
/* Parse the xml-data from our URL. */
// OLD, and works if comment all the above
//xr.parse(new InputSource(request.getInputStream()));
xr.parse(new InputSource(is))
/* Parsing has finished. */;
Can anyone help me at all??
Kind regards,
Andy
