I am working on android application and I need to parse my json object with data. How you can see I create JSONParser class and try to use asynctask but there is something wrong and I can't understand where is the problem. Every time I use it resultJSON is null. Hope that you can give me an advice!
public class JSONParser {
private String resultJSON;
public JSONArray getJSON(String url) throws JSONException {
Parser parser = new Parser();
parser.execute(url);
return json;
}
private class Parser extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... urls) {
for (String url : urls) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
try {
HttpResponse response = client.execute(httpGet);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();
if (statusCode == 200) {
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream content = entity.getContent();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(content));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
builder.append(line);
}
resultJSON = builder.toString();
} else {
Log.e(JSONParser.class.toString(), "Failed to download file");
}
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return resultJSON;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
try {
json = new JSONArray(result);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
Why don't you JSONArray json = new JSONArray(resultJSON); do this on post execute method of async task .
And i will not suggest varevarao way , as it will create extra burden of one thread .
You should use the get() method of the AsyncTask class to retrieve the result of the task. It waits for the task to complete and gets the result (which means it'd be best if you enclose it within a separate thread with a progress dialog or just a background thread).
public JSONArray getJSON(String url) throws JSONException {
Parser parser = new Parser();
parser.execute(url);
resultJSON = parser.get(); // Probably put this in a Thread to avoid spending too much time waiting for a result on the main thread
JSONArray json = new JSONArray(resultJSON);
return json;
}
The problem is fixed. It's an awful workaround but it works. Add this line
while(json==null) {}
after calling the execute method.

I am working on an android app, and am running into some troubles with registering users. I want to post a JSON object to my server and receive one back. I can successfully create a JSON object with the right information but when I go to post it I get a NetworkOnMainThreadException or my HttpClient class returns null when it should be returning a JSONObject and I am very confident that my web server works correctly. I understand that you cannot connect to the network on the main thread and have created an HttpClient class that uses AsnycTask (although probably not correctly). I have been working on this for quite a while and would appreciate any guidance in the right direction.
//Main activity
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
if(!(isEmpty(name) || isEmpty(username) || isEmpty(password) || isEmpty(email))) {
user = new JSONObject();
try {
user.put("username", username.getText().toString());
user.put("name", name.getText().toString());
user.put("email", email.getText().toString());
user.put("password", password.getText().toString());
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
jRegister = new JSONObject();
try {
jRegister.put("apiToken", Utilities.apiToken);
jRegister.put("user", user);
Log.i("MainActivity", jRegister.toString(2));
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
//
HttpClient client = new HttpClient(url, jRegister);
result = client.getJSONFromUrl();
try {
if(result != null)
tv.setText(result.toString(2));
else
tv.setText("null");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}else {
tv.setText("");
}
}
HttpClient Class
public class HttpClient extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, JSONObject>{
private final String TAG = "HttpClient";
private String URL;
private JSONObject jsonObjSend;
private JSONObject result = null;
public HttpClient(String URL, JSONObject jsonObjSend) {
this.URL = URL;
this.jsonObjSend = jsonObjSend;
}
public JSONObject getJSONFromUrl() {
this.execute();
return result;
}
#Override
protected JSONObject doInBackground(Void... params) {
try {
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPostRequest = new HttpPost(URL);
StringEntity se;
se = new StringEntity(jsonObjSend.toString());
// Set HTTP parameters
httpPostRequest.setEntity(se);
httpPostRequest.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
httpPostRequest.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
long t = System.currentTimeMillis();
HttpResponse response = (HttpResponse) httpclient.execute(httpPostRequest);
Log.i(TAG, "HTTPResponse received in [" + (System.currentTimeMillis()-t) + "ms]");
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
if (entity != null) {
// Read the content stream
InputStream instream = entity.getContent();
// convert content stream to a String
String resultString= convertStreamToString(instream);
instream.close();
resultString = resultString.substring(1,resultString.length()-1); // remove wrapping "[" and "]"
JSONObject jsonObjRecv = new JSONObject(resultString);
// Raw DEBUG output of our received JSON object:
Log.i(TAG,"<JSONObject>\n"+jsonObjRecv.toString()+"\n</JSONObject>");
return jsonObjRecv;
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject jObject) {
result = jObject;
}
private static String convertStreamToString(InputStream is) {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return sb.toString();
}
}
I understand that you cannot connect to the network on the main thread
and have created an HttpClient class that uses AsnycTask (although
probably not correctly).
You are right you have not implemented it the right way.
In your onClick events (still on Main thread) you performed a network activity causing the error:
HttpClient client = new HttpClient(url, jRegister);
result = client.getJSONFromUrl();
Instead you should run the network operation inside of the AsnycTask
public class GetJsonTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, JSONObject >{
private String URL;
private JSONObject jsonObjSend;
public GetJsonTask(String URL, JSONObject jsonObjSend) {
this.URL = URL;
this.jsonObjSend = jsonObjSend;
}
#Override
protected JSONObject doInBackground(Void... params) {
JSONObject jsonObjRecv;
try {
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPostRequest = new HttpPost(URL);
StringEntity se;
se = new StringEntity(jsonObjSend.toString());
// Set HTTP parameters
httpPostRequest.setEntity(se);
httpPostRequest.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
httpPostRequest.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
long t = System.currentTimeMillis();
HttpResponse response = (HttpResponse) httpclient.execute(httpPostRequest);
Log.i(TAG, "HTTPResponse received in [" + (System.currentTimeMillis()-t) + "ms]");
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
if (entity != null) {
// Read the content stream
InputStream instream = entity.getContent();
// convert content stream to a String
String resultString= convertStreamToString(instream);
instream.close();
resultString = resultString.substring(1,resultString.length()-1); // remove wrapping "[" and "]"
jsonObjRecv = new JSONObject(resultString);
// Raw DEBUG output of our received JSON object:
Log.i(TAG,"<JSONObject>\n"+jsonObjRecv.toString()+"\n</JSONObject>");
}
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return jsonObjRecv;
}
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject result) {
try {
if(result != null)
tv.setText(result.toString(2));
else
tv.setText("null");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}else {
tv.setText("");
}
}
}
Then you call your async in onclik method like this:
public void onClick(View arg0) {
//.......
GetJsonTask client = new GetJsonTask(url, jRegister);
client.execute();
}
One problem in your code is that your expectations of AsyncTask aren't quite right. In particular this function:
public JSONObject getJSONFromUrl() {
this.execute();
return result;
}
AsyncTask runs the code in the doInBackground() function in a separate thread. This means that once you call execute() you have two parallel lines of execution. You end up with what's called a Race Condition. When you reach the return result line, a couple of things can be happening:
doInBackground() hasn't run and therefore result is still has the default value. In this case null.
doInBackground() can be in the middle of the code. In your particular case because it doesn't modify result then this doesn't affect you much. But it could be on any line (or middle of a line sometimes if operations aren't atomic) when that return happens.
doInBackground() could've finished, but since onPostExecute() runs on the UI thread it has to wait until your onClick handler is finished. By the time onPostExecute() has a chance to run onClick already tried to update tv with whatever it was that getJSONFromUrl returned, most likely null.
The way to set up tasks with AsyncTask is to give it the information it needs to do it's work, start it up with execute, and since you can't know how long it will take to complete, let it handle the finishing steps of the task.
This means that after calling execute you don't wait around for it's result to update views (like in your case), but rather rely on the AsyncTask's onPostExecute or related methods to take over the next steps.
For your case this would mean that your onPostExecute should look something like:
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject result) {
try {
if(result != null)
tv.setText(result.toString(2));
else
tv.setText("null");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I'm desperately trying to solve an issue with my android app. I submit a List to my server with an enum set as a 'tag'. The PHP pages should look at this tag and then proceed to perform the associated functions and return as a json array or object. This works fine with one version of the app but a cloned version fails to fetch data. The PHP just jumps straight over tag checking at the isset tag and tag is not empty conditions so it must be flat out seeing an empty POST or the object I submit doesn't meet some requirement I'm unaware of.
I've looked through so many posts and searched and searched but haven't found a solution. Why would it work for one version of the app but not for the upgraded version, that hasn't made any changes to the methods used for sending data??
So here's what I'm dealing with. To begin with, an AsyncTask takes the objects and passes to a class that handles communication:
private class UpdateJobList extends AsyncTask<User, Void, Boolean> {
private List<Message> messages;
public UpdateJobList() {
super();
messages = new ArrayList<Message>();
}
#Override
protected Boolean doInBackground(User... params){
try {
CloudConnect cConn = new CloudConnect(sAddress);
this.messages = cConn.getAll(params[0]);
return true;
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return false;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Boolean result) {
if (true)
{
handleMessageList(messages);
}
}
}
Using the CloudConnect class to get single Json objects or an array of Objects:
public class CloudConnect {
private String site;
private InputStream is;
private Gson gson;
public CloudConnect(String site) throws MalformedURLException {
this.site = site;
this.gson = new GsonBuilder().setDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").create();
is = null;
}
public synchronized Message get(Message m) throws IOException {
Message msg = null;
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(this.site);
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(validateMessage(m)));
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
StatusLine status = response.getStatusLine();
if ( status.getStatusCode() == 200) {
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
is = entity.getContent();
try {
Reader read = new InputStreamReader(is);
String str = (String) gson.fromJson(read, Object.class);
JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
JsonElement jElem = parser.parse(str);
JsonObject jObject = (JsonObject) jElem;
msg = gson.fromJson(jObject, Message.class);
is.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return msg;
}
public synchronized List<Message> getAll(Message m) throws IOException {
List<Message> mList = new ArrayList<Message>();
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(this.site);
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(validateMessage(m)));
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
StatusLine status = response.getStatusLine();
if ( status.getStatusCode() == 200) {
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
is = entity.getContent();
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
JsonArray jArray = null;
JsonReader jReader = new JsonReader(reader);
jReader.setLenient(true);
JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
if (parser.parse(jReader).isJsonArray()){
jArray = parser.parse(jReader).getAsJsonArray();
if ( m instanceof User ){
for (JsonElement je : jArray) {
mList.add(gson.fromJson(je, Job.class));
Log.d("json", je.toString());
}
} else if ( m instanceof Job ) {
for (JsonElement je : jArray) {
mList.add(gson.fromJson(je, Update.class));
Log.d("json", je.toString());
}
}
} else {
JsonElement jElem = parser.parse(jReader);
JsonObject jObject = (JsonObject) jElem;
Error msg = null;
msg = gson.fromJson(jObject, Error.class);
mList.add(msg);
}
is.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return mList;
}
And the PHP code that checks for the tag:
if ( isset($_POST['messageType']) && $_POST['messageType'] != "") {
$tag = $_POST['messageType'];
//
//various functions depending on messageType tag here. Such as getUser($email).
//functions appear to work fine if the PHP doesn't find the initial conditions
//false and skips them all.
} else {
$response["success"] = 0;
$response["error"]["errorMsg"] = "Tags are null";
$response["error"]["messageType"] = $tag;
$response["error"]["varDump"] = var_dump($_POST);
echo json_encode($response);
}
Ok, now I get it. You do not have a problem on your Android code but in PHP (I came here because of the TAG Android). I am not an expert in PHP, but remember that isset ($ _POST ['messageType']) returns true only if the payload of your POST request contains something like: messageType=some_value. So you need to check if the value that you passsed to post.setEntity(value) is something in this format.
You can use tools like Fiddler to see the payload of your request and debug properly.
I'm trying to POST data in JSON format to a script I have running PHP on my webserver. I have found this post: How to send data to a website using httpPost, app crashes.
Using the code he wrote (putting it on a separate thread first) I am able to post data to the PHP script, which accesses it by the $_POST variable. However, I wish to post my data in JSON format. I am guessing it would require me to post a raw stream of data to the server. What functions are available to achieve this? I would also need to post images as a stream of data to the PHP script so I think this solution will also help me in that area.
Additionally, what are the advantages of posting JSON to the server rather than using the method he used?
I am programming the client side in Java in conjunction with the Android SDK.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have a sample example for posting json data .
Have a look at this:
public class LoginActivity extends Activity {
private static final String TAG = "LoginActivity";
private Context mContext;
private Intent mIntent;
private ProgressDialog pdLoading;
private class LoginTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String>
{
private ArrayList<NameValuePair> mParams = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
private JSONArray mJArray = new JSONArray();
private JSONObject mJobject = new JSONObject();
private String jsonString = new String();
#Override

super.onPreExecute();
pdLoading.show();
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {
try {
mJobject.put("userName", "test");
mJobject.put("password", "test");
mJArray.put(mJobject);
mParams.add(new BasicNameValuePair("message", mJArray.toString()));
jsonString = WebAPIRequest.postJsonData("http://putyoururlhere.com/login.php?", mParams);
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
return jsonString;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
pdLoading.dismiss();
if(result!=null)
{
/* try {
mJobject = new JSONObject(jsonString);
if(mJobject.getString("Success").equals("True"))
{
mJArray = mJobject.getJSONArray("user");
JSONObject mUser = mJArray.getJSONObject(0);
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}*/
Log.e(TAG, jsonString);
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
initialization();
new LoginTask().execute();
}
private void initialization() {
mContext = this;
mIntent = new Intent();
pdLoading = new ProgressDialog(mContext);
pdLoading.setMessage("loading...");
}
}
and
public class WebAPIRequest {
public static String convertStreamToString(InputStream is)
throws IOException {
if (is != null) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line;
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(is, "UTF-8"));
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line).append("\n");
}
} finally {
is.close();
}
return sb.toString();
} else {
return "";
}
}
public static String postJsonData(String url, List<NameValuePair> params) {
String response_string = new String();
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(url);
httppost.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
try {
httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params, HTTP.UTF_8));
String paramString = URLEncodedUtils.format(params, HTTP.UTF_8);
String sampleurl = url + "" + paramString;
Log.e("Request_Url", "" + sampleurl);
// Execute HTTP Post Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
if (response != null) {
InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent();
response_string = WebAPIRequest.convertStreamToString(in);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return response_string;
}
}
EDIT :
try,
print_r(json_decode($_POST['message'], true);
or
$data = file_get_contents('php://input');
$json = json_decode($data,true);
I hope it will be helpful !!
I'm the perfectionist type, I already got web API calls working fine with Google Places API (just as an example), but I feel it's sometimes slow or maybe I'm not doing it right. Some blogs are saying I should use AndroidHttpClient, but I'm not, should I ?
The web API calls i'm using return json and I don't run them on the UI thread, hence using AsyncTask (is AsyncTask the most efficient way to run on background thread or should I use something else ?)
Please see my code and tell me how could it be more efficient in anyway
public static class NearbySearchRequest extends AsyncTask<String, Void, JSONObject>
{
Exception mException = null;
#Override
protected void onPreExecute()
{
super.onPreExecute();
this.mException = null;
}
#Override
protected JSONObject doInBackground(String... params)
{
StringBuilder urlString = new StringBuilder();
urlString.append("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?");
urlString.append("key=").append(Constants.GOOGLE_SIMPLE_API_KEY);
urlString.append("&location=").append(params[0]);
urlString.append("&sensor=").append("true");
urlString.append("&language=").append("en-GB");
urlString.append("&name=").append(params[1]);
urlString.append("&rankby=").append("distance");
LogHelper.Log(urlString.toString());
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
URL url = null;
JSONObject object = null;
try
{
url = new URL(urlString.toString());
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
urlConnection.setDoInput(true);
urlConnection.connect();
InputStream inStream = null;
inStream = urlConnection.getInputStream();
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inStream));
String temp, response = "";
while ((temp = bReader.readLine()) != null)
response += temp;
bReader.close();
inStream.close();
urlConnection.disconnect();
object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(response).nextValue();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
this.mException = e;
}
return (object);
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject result)
{
super.onPostExecute(result);
if (this.mException != null)
ErrorHelper.report(this.mException, "Error # NearbySearchRequest");
}
}
The Http engine you're using seems the best choice. Actually any other 3-rd party engines are based either on Apache, either on HttpUrlConnection. I prefer to use Spring for Android as that API provide an abstraction over Http Engine and you don't really need to care how about what API to use based on API level. Or you can use Volley - a very fashionable library.
I would touch however some of your code:
What if there is an exception while reading the stream? Then the stream remains open and also the connection. So I would suggest to have a finally block where the streams and connection is closed no matter if you get an exception or not:
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
URL url = null;
JSONObject object = null;
InputStream inStream = null;
try {
url = new URL(urlString.toString());
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
urlConnection.setDoInput(true);
urlConnection.connect();
inStream = urlConnection.getInputStream();
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inStream));
String temp, response = "";
while ((temp = bReader.readLine()) != null) {
response += temp;
}
object = (JSONObject) new JSONTokener(response).nextValue();
} catch (Exception e) {
this.mException = e;
} finally {
if (inStream != null) {
try {
// this will close the bReader as well
inStream.close();
} catch (IOException ignored) {
}
}
if (urlConnection != null) {
urlConnection.disconnect();
}
}
JSON parsing: you're using the Android standard way of parsing JSON, but that's not the fastest and easiest to work with. GSON and Jackson are better to use. To make a comparison when it comes for JSON parsers, I would go for Jackson. Here's another SO topic on this comparison.
Don't concatenate strings like that as concatenating strings will create each time another string. Use a StringBuilder instead.
Exception handling (this is anyway a long-debate subject in all programming forums). First of all you have to log it (Use Log class not System.out.printXXX). Then you need to either inform the user: either you toast a message, either you show a label or notification. The decision depends on the user case and how relevant is the call you're making.
These are the topics I see in you code.
EDIT I realize I didn't answer this: is AsyncTask the most efficient way to run on background thread or should I use something else?
The short answer I would give is: if you're supposed to perform a short time lived request, then AsyncTask is perfect. However, if you need to get some data and display it - but you don't want to worry about whether to download again if the screen is rotated and so on, I would strongly recommend using an AsyncTaskLoader and Loaders in general.
If you need to download some big data, then either you use an IntentService or, for heavy-weight operations, DownloadManager.
Enjoy coding!

I am trying to parse some JSON data, but my app doesn't do anything because i can't seem to get any response from URL, i tried to open URL connection in few different ways, but it's still the same. for Example :
urlMy=new URL(string);
URLConnection tc = urlMy.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
tc.getInputStream()));
String line=in.readLine();
doesn't return anything, it even dismisses everything in my function written below that code.
Or
urlMy=new URL(examp);
InputStream inputStream = urlMy.openConnection().getInputStream();
InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(inputStream);
BufferedReader bR = new BufferedReader(reader);
the same thing. This function is called and like it never happend, every function after this one executes, so it's not in the endless loop, but every bit of code in this function after this example code is ignored. if i remove this code for reading url, everthing else works.
Try to use AsyncTask,try something like:
class MyAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, String, Void> {
private ProgressDialog progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
InputStream inputStream = null;
String result = "";
protected void onPreExecute() {
progressDialog.setMessage("Downloading your data...");
progressDialog.show();
progressDialog.setOnCancelListener(new OnCancelListener() {
public void onCancel(DialogInterface arg0) {
MyAsyncTask.this.cancel(true);
}
});
}
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... params) {
String url_select = "http://yoururlhere.com"
ArrayList<NameValuePair> param = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
try {
// Set up HTTP post
// HttpClient is more then less deprecated. Need to change to URLConnection
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url_select);
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(param));
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
// Read content & Log
inputStream = httpEntity.getContent();
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e1) {
Log.e("UnsupportedEncodingException", e1.toString());
e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClientProtocolException e2) {
Log.e("ClientProtocolException", e2.toString());
e2.printStackTrace();
} catch (IllegalStateException e3) {
Log.e("IllegalStateException", e3.toString());
e3.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e4) {
Log.e("IOException", e4.toString());
e4.printStackTrace();
}
// Convert response to string using String Builder
try {
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
StringBuilder sBuilder = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = bReader.readLine()) != null) {
sBuilder.append(line + "\n");
}
inputStream.close();
result = sBuilder.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("StringBuilding & BufferedReader", "Error converting result " + e.toString());
}
} // protected Void doInBackground(String... params)
protected void onPostExecute(Void v) {
//parse JSON data
try{
JSONArray jArray = new JSONArray(result);
for(i=0; i < jArray.length(); i++) {
JSONObject jObject = jArray.getJSONObject(i);
String name = jObject.getString("name");
String tab1_text = jObject.getString("tab1_text");
int active = jObject.getInt("active");
} // End Loop
this.progressDialog.dismiss();

In the last Google I/O, Google released a new library called Volley. It's fast for HTTP requests, very easy to use and you can set it up to return JSONObjects ready for parsing. https://developers.google.com/events/io/sessions/325304728
