Android

It is very important for a mobile application too talk to web based applications. There are various scenarios where we need to fetch data from web pages .

Note : You also need to enable uses permission for internet in the android.manifest file.

public void postData(String toPost) {
// Create a new HttpClient and Post Header
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://www.URL.com/yourpage.php");

//This is the data to send
String MyName = 'adil'; //any data to send

try {
// Add your data
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(1);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("action", MyName));

httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));

// Execute HTTP Post Request

ResponseHandler<String> responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler();
String response = httpclient.execute(httppost, responseHandler);

//This is the response from a php application
String reverseString = response;
Toast.makeText(this, "response" + reverseString, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
Toast.makeText(this, "CPE response " + e.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
} catch (IOException e) {
Toast.makeText(this, "IOE response " + e.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
}

}//end postData()

Just to clarify, this is for Android devices connected to your internal network via VPN, and not WiFi?

Are you using a VPN app on the Android device

Could the barcode that the Android device is generating be uploaded to a secure web site? I'm not trying to change your mind, rather just trying to see if there are any other ways to skin that cat

We only want internal users to run the app.
