Android event for internet connectivity state change [duplicate]
very old post but i would like to share my receiver
no need to put your hands on manifest or other boring resources :)
USAGE
YOUR ACTIVITY:
/*
* You need to implement NetworkStateReceiverListener.
* This interface is described inside the NewtworkStateReceiver class
*/
public class MyActivity implements NetworkStateReceiverListener {
/* ... */
private NetworkStateReceiver networkStateReceiver;
}
IN YOUR ACTIVITY: INSTANTIATE THE RECEIVER
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
/* ... */
networkStateReceiver = new NetworkStateReceiver();
networkStateReceiver.addListener(this);
this.registerReceiver(networkStateReceiver, new IntentFilter(android.net.ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION));
}
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
networkStateReceiver.removeListener(this);
this.unregisterReceiver(networkStateReceiver);
}
IN YOUR ACTIVITY: IMPLEMENTS THE REQUIRED METHODS
@Override
public void networkAvailable() {
Log.d("tommydevall", "I'm in, baby!");
/* TODO: Your connection-oriented stuff here */
}
@Override
public void networkUnavailable() {
Log.d("tommydevall", "I'm dancing with myself");
/* TODO: Your disconnection-oriented stuff here */
}
THE RECEIVER
just copy and paste into your project as NetworkStateReceiver.java
public class NetworkStateReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
protected Set<NetworkStateReceiverListener> listeners;
protected Boolean connected;
public NetworkStateReceiver() {
listeners = new HashSet<NetworkStateReceiverListener>();
connected = null;
}
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if(intent == null || intent.getExtras() == null)
return;
ConnectivityManager manager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo ni = manager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
if(ni != null && ni.getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED) {
connected = true;
} else if(intent.getBooleanExtra(ConnectivityManager.EXTRA_NO_CONNECTIVITY,Boolean.FALSE)) {
connected = false;
}
notifyStateToAll();
}
private void notifyStateToAll() {
for(NetworkStateReceiverListener listener : listeners)
notifyState(listener);
}
private void notifyState(NetworkStateReceiverListener listener) {
if(connected == null || listener == null)
return;
if(connected == true)
listener.networkAvailable();
else
listener.networkUnavailable();
}
public void addListener(NetworkStateReceiverListener l) {
listeners.add(l);
notifyState(l);
}
public void removeListener(NetworkStateReceiverListener l) {
listeners.remove(l);
}
public interface NetworkStateReceiverListener {
public void networkAvailable();
public void networkUnavailable();
}
}
ENJOY ;)
If you just want to do something simple when the connectivity changes, there is a much easier solution.
In your activity, create a Broadcast Receiver:
private BroadcastReceiver networkStateReceiver=new BroadcastReceiver() {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
ConnectivityManager manager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo ni = manager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
doSomethingOnNetworkChange(ni);
}
};
Then in onResume
and onPause
do the registration:
@Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
registerReceiver(networkStateReceiver, new IntentFilter(android.net.ConnectivityManager.CONNECTIVITY_ACTION));
}
@Override
public void onPause() {
unregisterReceiver(networkStateReceiver);
super.onPause();
}
Not quite sure what was going on in Tommaso's broadcast receiver but it wasn't working for me, here's my implementation. It only notifies on change between connectivity available/unavailable.
Also I register it in onResume()
and unregister in onPause()
. Otherwise it's the same as above.
public class NetworkStateReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
private ConnectivityManager mManager;
private List<NetworkStateReceiverListener> mListeners;
private boolean mConnected;
public NetworkStateReceiver(Context context) {
mListeners = new ArrayList<NetworkStateReceiverListener>();
mManager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
checkStateChanged();
}
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
if (intent == null || intent.getExtras() == null)
return;
if (checkStateChanged()) notifyStateToAll();
}
private boolean checkStateChanged() {
boolean prev = mConnected;
NetworkInfo activeNetwork = mManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
mConnected = activeNetwork != null && activeNetwork.isConnectedOrConnecting();
return prev != mConnected;
}
private void notifyStateToAll() {
for (NetworkStateReceiverListener listener : mListeners) {
notifyState(listener);
}
}
private void notifyState(NetworkStateReceiverListener listener) {
if (listener != null) {
if (mConnected) listener.onNetworkAvailable();
else listener.onNetworkUnavailable();
}
}
public void addListener(NetworkStateReceiverListener l) {
mListeners.add(l);
notifyState(l);
}
public void removeListener(NetworkStateReceiverListener l) {
mListeners.remove(l);
}
public interface NetworkStateReceiverListener {
public void onNetworkAvailable();
public void onNetworkUnavailable();
}
}
