Processing for Android
1

Hi guys! So I’m developing a small app in Android, and one activity Is made in processing. I thought that going from processing to android is easy, but I got some problems, maily that I can’t use the loadStrings function. Here is the exception:

I tried using

seed = loadStrings("https://pastebin.com/raw/VWZk096D");

The pastern file is just a test file! I read some threads but nothing really helped me…

Did you enable internet permissions?

@marcg====

android >9 does not allow networking on the main thread;
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/NetworkOnMainThreadException
in order to solve that you have to use AsyncTask (for short networking operations) or create another thread ( for long operations) or change the strictModePolicy by code, which is not recommanded but possible.

@akenaton Yea I read some posts on other forums, but I’m fairly new to android so I wasn’t really able to make a new AsyncTask or a new thread inside the sketch java file. I disabled those restrictions, but just until I can find a better solution. If anyone would help me make a new thread or that asynctask thing :)) I’d be really gratefull

@kfrajer yes I did

actually, never mind this, because the network issues are fixed. I’ll make a new thread for another loadStrings problem.
