How to use Handler in AsynkTask in android

I am fetching data from server using AsynkTask which works fine but I want to use handler in AsynkTask to reduce load from main Thread.How can I use Handler in AsynkTask. Kindly help me to solve this problem.
Here is my code.

As per android docs here
An asynchronous task is defined by a computation that runs on a
background thread and whose result is published on the UI thread.
And loading data from URL with Handler is not a good thing. Instead use Executor or ThreadPoolExecutor to do heavy background tasks.

You Can Use
getActivity().runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
getResponse();
}
});

you can do like this:
class MyAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Object,Object,Object>{
Private Context c;
private Handler handler;
private final static int YOUR_WORK_ID = 0x11;
public MyAsyncTask(Context c,Handler handler){
this.c = c;
this.handler = handler;
}
protected Object doInBackground(Object... params){
//do your work
...
Message m = handler.obtainMessage();
m.what = YOUR_WORK_ID;
...
handler.sendMessage().sendToTarget();
}
}
And in your fragment ,you can init a handler as params to MyAsyncTask,and deal with you work in handleMessage();

In asynkTask class get Response method update UI of class CDealListing

There are 3 ways
Call some method of your Fragment in onPostExecute()
Use BroadcastReceiver in onPostExecute()
use EventBus library for passing event to your Fragment.

One way would be to declare a listener interface and pass an instance of that interface (or perhaps a Runnable) into the AsyncTask's constructor.
In your fragment code:
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
new CDealDataSent(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
// perform update UI code here
}
}).execute(m_DealListingURL);
...
}
In your AsyncTask code:
class CDealDataSent extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
private final Runnable mOnPostExecuteRunnable;
CDealDataSent(Runnable onPostExecuteRunnable) {
mOnPostExecuteRunnable = onPostExecuteRunnable;
}
...
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
...
if (mPostExecuteRunnable != null) {
mPostExecuteRunnable.run();
}
...
}
}
You could also use an anonymous subclass of AsyncTask from your fragment and override onPostExecute():
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
...
new CDealDataSent() {
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
super.onPostExecute(result); // be sure to call super first to do normal processing
... // update your UI here
}
}.execute(m_DealListingURL);
...
}
Note that both of these solutions are prone to Activity/Fragment leakage if you are not careful, as the parent class of the Runnable/anonymous subclass is retained as an implicit reference. Be sure to cancel any outstanding AsyncTasks if the user backs out of your activity in onDestroy().
You might be able to mitigate any potential leakage issues via a static nested class, or maybe pass a Handler instance to the AsyncTask for it to send a message on when onPostExecute() has done its job. See What's the correct way to implement AsyncTask? static or non static nested class? for a discussion on this.

How to send Login Boolean value to server in android

I am developing an app in which a login screen is visible to user and what I have to send to server is mobilenumber,password and isfirst true to server when user logging in first time and when user logout and again login I have to send isFirst false to server ,How can I achieve this problem.
Note:- I dont have to check value from shared Preference, I have to send isFirst true or false on user login first time and second time,first time is true and second time false to server using Jsons.

JSON POST request for download image from server in android

I need to download image and set it in to imageview . for parsing i use JSON POST request and for this i use base64 . I got base64 type data for the image tag in to log but the problem is that how t separate the value of that image and convert it in to string and then display it in to list view ??is there any alternative way without using base64 to display image then please suggest us.
For parsing of data i use JSON parser with HttpPost .
Now how to get the value of image from response JSON format that i display above that the confusion ??
Thanks in advance ..

You can do like this.
Create folder in server. put images in that folder. get the URL of the image and insert in to db.
then get the JSON value of that url
add this method and pass that url to this method.
Bitmap bitmap;
void loadImage(String image_location) {
URL imageURL = null;
try {
imageURL = new URL(image_location);
}
catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) imageURL
.openConnection();
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.connect();
InputStream inputStream = connection.getInputStream();
bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);// Convert to
// bitmap
imageView.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

Try below code:
JSONObject res = jsonObj.getJSONObject("root");
JSONObject data = jsonObj.getJSONObject("data");
JSONArray imgs= jsonObj.getJSONArray ("images");
for(int i=0;i<imgs.length();i++){
JSONObject Ldetails = Ldtls.getJSONObject(i);
String img= Ldetails.getString("image");
byte[] decodedString = Base64.decode(img,Base64.NO_WRAP);
InputStream inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(decodedString);
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
imagevw.setImageBitmap(bitmap);
}
where imagevw is your ImageView.

Use a Gson Parser and then parse the base64 image string to a byte array and apply on the image.
Your model classes will be as follows:
public class JsonWrapper
{
private Root root ;
public Root getroot()
{
return this.root;
}
public void setroot(Root root)
{
this.root = root;
}
}
public class Root
{
private Response response ;

Once you have the json parse using Gson as follows:
JsonWrapper jsonWrapper = new JsonWrapper();
Gson gsonParser = new Gson();
jsonWrapper = gsonParser.fromJson(data, jsonWrapper.getClass());
Next you can iterate through all the images
ArrayList<Image> images = jsoinWrapper.getRoot().getResponse().getData().getImages();
for(Image image : images)
{
byte[] decodedString = Base64.decode(image.getblob_image(), Base64.DEFAULT);
Bitmap decodedByte = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(decodedString, 0, decodedString.length);
if (decodedString != null) {
imageViewtype.setImageBitmap(decodedByte);
}
}

Android GSON processing remote JSON runtime exception

I am attempting to write an Android app which casts JSON input. This is my sample input.
I have the following class to serve as the data container:
public class DATA {
public Long id;
public String title;
public String author;
public String url;
public String date;
public String body;
public DATA() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
#Override
public String toString(){
return "DATA-Oblect: ID=> " + id + "/nTITLE=> " + title;
}
}
Using the following code:
protected void doInBackground(String... url) {
try{
//create an HTTP client
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost("http://kylewbanks.com/rest/posts");//url[0]);
//perform the request and check the status code
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
if(statusLine.getStatusCode() == 200){
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream content = entity.getContent();
content = entity.getContent();
try{
Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(content);
GsonBuilder gsonBuilder = new GsonBuilder();
gsonBuilder.setDateFormat("M/d/yy hh:mm a");
Gson gson = gsonBuilder.create();
List<DATA> Data = new ArrayList<DATA>();
Data = Arrays.asList(gson.fromJson(reader, DATA[].class));
content.close();
}catch(Exception ex){
Log.e(TAG, "JSON parse failed due to: " + ex);
}
}else{
Log.e(TAG, "Server response code: " + statusLine.getStatusCode());
}
}catch(Exception ex){
Log.e(TAG, "HTTP-Post failed due to: " + ex);
}
}
I get the following exception error:
JSON parse failed due to: java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't create handler inside thread that has not called Looper.prepare()
What am I doing wrong?

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
