I scroll through the official documentation of Retrofit and decided to implement something like this in my project, so that the user always has the option to cancel the download file and everything would work correctly. Implement appropriate methods, where the failure to prescribe the following:
service.upload1(file1, str, stringMap, new Callback<ImageUpload>() {
@Override
public void success(final ImageUpload imageUpload, Response response) {
mRecyclerView.post(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
...
});
}
@Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
if (error.isCanceled()) {
Log.e(TAG, "request is cancelled");
} else {
Log.e(TAG, "other larger issue, i.e. no network connection?");
}
}
But underlines in red isCanceled in failure method. I do not understand what's the problem, because this method we initially proposed class Call(perhaps because swears at me instead of class Call is RetrofitError?) Please tell me how to fix. I use retrofit 1.9, and i don't need go on retrofit 2.
error.isCanceled() does not seem to be there in Retrofit as far as I remember. If you want to be able to cancel a request, you can either switch to Retrofit 2 where they have a call.cancel() method or in the current version of Retrofit, you could extent the Callback class to create your own class CancellableCallback like this:
public class CancellableCallback<T> implements Callback<T> {
private Callback<T> callback;
private boolean canceled;
private CancellableCallback() {}
public CancellableCallback(Callback<T> callback) {
this.callback = callback;
canceled = false;
}
public void cancel() {
canceled = true;
callback = null;
}
@Override
public void success(T o, Response response) {
if (!canceled) {
callback.success(o, response);
}
}
@Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
if (!canceled) {
callback.failure(error);
}
}
}
Edit
You can then use it like this:
CancellableCallback callback = new Callback<ImageUpload>() {
@Override
public void success(final ImageUpload imageUpload, Response response) {
mRecyclerView.post(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
...
});
}
@Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
}
};
service.upload1(file1, str, stringMap, callback);
And then cancel it like this:
if (some condition && callback != null) {
callback.cancel();
}
