I am trying to add a progress/loading bar to my application that uses WebView. I am confused on how to implement a progress bar that appears every time a link is clicked.
Current code:
public class CULearnBrowser extends Activity {
WebView webview;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webview.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.loadUrl("https://culearn.colorado.edu/webct/entryPageIns.dowebct");
}
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && webview.canGoBack()) {
webview.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
}
Activity layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="@string/hello" />
</LinearLayout>

I have added few lines in your code and now its working fine with progress bar.
getWindow().requestFeature(Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS);
setContentView(R.layout.main );
// Makes Progress bar Visible
getWindow().setFeatureInt( Window.FEATURE_PROGRESS, Window.PROGRESS_VISIBILITY_ON);
webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int progress)
{
//Make the bar disappear after URL is loaded, and changes string to Loading...
setTitle("Loading...");
setProgress(progress * 100); //Make the bar disappear after URL is loaded
// Return the app name after finish loading
if(progress == 100)
setTitle(R.string.app_name);
}
});
webview.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
in oncreate method where you have set your Webview.
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.web_view);
web_view = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.web_view);
pd = new ProgressDialog(SiteOpenInWebView.this);
pd.setMessage("Please wait Loading...");
pd.show();
web_view.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
web_view.loadUrl("ur site name");
}
WebViewClient
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
if (!pd.isShowing()) {
pd.show();
}
return true;
}
@Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
System.out.println("on finish");
if (pd.isShowing()) {
pd.dismiss();
}
}
}
