I am trying to write a common webservice class where in any of the activities within my application has to point to this common class for webservice stuff. Currently I got stuck in between i.e; to pass the success/failure message to the calling class, My current implementation is like below, I have an interface class where in I have 2 methods,
public void webServiceReqExecutedSuccessfully();
public void webSerReqFailed();
and each webservice calling class implements these methods as per their requirements. And my common webservice class is like below,
public class WebServiceRequest extends AsyncTask < String, Void, Boolean>
{
private static final MediaType FORM_DATA_TYPE = MediaType.parse("application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8");
public enum HTTPServiceTags {
POST_IT,
GET_ALL_ITEMS
}
HTTPServiceTags requestTag;
public ATWebServiceRequest(HTTPServiceTags reqTag, Callable < Void > _ServiceResponseSuccess, Callable < Void > _ServiceResponseFailure) {
this.requestTag = reqTag;
}
@Override
protected Boolean doInBackground(String...postDataSet) {
Boolean result = true;
String requestURL = postDataSet[0];
String postBody = getPostBody(postDataSet);
Log.d(requestURL, postBody);
try {
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(FORM_DATA_TYPE, postBody);
Request request = new Request.Builder().url(requestURL).post(body).build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
} catch (IOException exception) {
result = false;
}
return result;
}
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {
if (result) {
switch (requestTag) {
case POST_IT:
//HOW CAN I NOTIFY/INVOKE webServiceReqExecutedSuccessfully METHOD OF THE CALLING CLASS HERE???
break;
case GET_ALL_ITEMS:
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
}
My question here is after the service call response how can I notify/invoke the calling class interface methods(webServiceReqExecutedSuccessfully() / webSerReqFailed()) from which object reference? Any help is appreciated in advance. Thanks
Create Interface
which will be use as callback.
public interface MyCallBack {
void onResult(HTTPServiceTags requestTag);
}
In your Activity
implements that interface-
public class Xyz extends Activity implements MyCallBack {
@override
public void void onResult(HTTPServiceTags requestTag) {
// Do your work
}
}
Pass that interface in your AsyncTask's constructor-
public WebServiceRequest(MyCallBack callBack) {
this.mCallBack = callBack; // Assign it to global variable
}
Then in onPostExecute
call it -
@Override
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {
if (result) {
mCallBack.onResult(requestTag);
}
}
