Topic doesn't end right I guess
public String newUser = "false";
public double lat = 0.0, lon = 0.0;
I have the following function in my Android application (called on button click) that starts a thread:
public void SignUpFunction(View view) {
assignValues();
String filledAll = checkIfFilled();
if (filledAll.equals("true")) {
Log.d("LIFECYCLE", "calling thread..");
//my thread
new validateThread().start();
Log.d("After thread start","This log call does not occur");
if (newUser.equals("true")) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Please wait as we obtain your location", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
getMyLocationFunction();
} else {
return;
}
}
}
validateThread:
class validateThread extends Thread {
public void run() {
Log.d("LIFECYCLE", "validateThread entered...");
try {
newUser = "true";
Log.d("validateThread", "Validated and found new user");
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("validateThread", "Exception in validateThread: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}
The stream is working correctly ... but after the last line it does not go back to the starting point. I don't understand why this is happening because I have used streams before and they all work correctly.
I know I can just give the getMyLocation function inside the thread, but I really need it.
I've searched for similar questions but none helped. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance.
