Volley slow and causing memory leak

Question

In my project, I am using volley to download a JSON stream which I parse and show in a listview. I use the following method to load my data:

private void lo         


        

Answer 1

I'm trying explain with few code (already Itai is explained in brief)

Below code explains how to use the global request queue for Volley with a singleton instance of the application class for easy access in other places and make the code more memory efficient!.

public class ApplicationController extends Application {

/**
 * Log or request TAG
 */
public static final String TAG = "VolleyPatterns";

/**
 * Global request queue for Volley
 */
private RequestQueue mRequestQueue;

/**
 * A singleton instance of the application class for easy access in other places
 */
private static ApplicationController sInstance;

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();

    // initialize the singleton
    sInstance = this;
}

/**
 * @return ApplicationController singleton instance
 */
public static synchronized ApplicationController getInstance() {
    return sInstance;
}

/**
 * @return The Volley Request queue, the queue will be created if it is null
 */
public RequestQueue getRequestQueue() {
    // lazy initialize the request queue, the queue instance will be
    // created when it is accessed for the first time
    if (mRequestQueue == null) {
        mRequestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(getApplicationContext());
    }

    return mRequestQueue;
}

/**
 * Adds the specified request to the global queue, if tag is specified
 * then it is used else Default TAG is used.
 * 
 * @param req
 * @param tag
 */
public  void addToRequestQueue(Request req, String tag) {
    // set the default tag if tag is empty
    req.setTag(TextUtils.isEmpty(tag) ? TAG : tag);

    VolleyLog.d("Adding request to queue: %s", req.getUrl());

    getRequestQueue().add(req);
}

/**
 * Adds the specified request to the global queue using the Default TAG.
 * 
 * @param req
 * @param tag
 */
public  void addToRequestQueue(Request req) {
    // set the default tag if tag is empty
    req.setTag(TAG);

    getRequestQueue().add(req);
}

/**
 * Cancels all pending requests by the specified TAG, it is important
 * to specify a TAG so that the pending/ongoing requests can be cancelled.
 * 
 * @param tag
 */
public void cancelPendingRequests(Object tag) {
    if (mRequestQueue != null) {
        mRequestQueue.cancelAll(tag);
    }
} }
