Volley JsonObjectRequest response

Question

I\'m retrieving data from my server through JSON using Volley JSONObjectRequest to achieve this. After getting the JSON response, I want to save it int

Answer 1

You should declare status as int instead of String.

private int status=0;

You can try this way

                status = response.getInt("status");
                description = response.getString("description");
                if (status == 1) { 
                 checkingStatus(status);
                } else {
                 checkingStatus(status);
                }

Then

public void checkingStatus(int status){
        if(status == 1){
            // do your code
        }else{
            // do your code
        }
    }

I have updated my answer as below,

    private int status;
    private String description;

    private void callRequest() {

        // Initialize a new RequestQueue instance
        RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(MainActivity.this);

        // Initialize a new JsonObjectRequest instance
        JsonObjectRequest jsonObjectRequest = new JsonObjectRequest(
                Request.Method.GET,
                "URL",
                null,
                new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
                    @Override
                    public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
                        try {
                            status = response.getInt("status");// ** STATUS IS 1 HERE **
                            description = response.getString("description");

                            checkStatus();
                        } catch (JSONException e) {
                            e.printStackTrace();
                        }
                    }
                },
                new Response.ErrorListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                        error.printStackTrace();
                    }
                }
        );

        // Add JsonObjectRequest to the RequestQueue
        requestQueue.add(jsonObjectRequest);
    }

    private void checkStatus(){
        if(status == 1){
            // do what do you need to do id status == 1
        }else{
            // do what do you need to do id status == 0
        }
    }

Try this and let me know the updates Thanks!

The volley request is an asynchronous call. It doesn't block the code till the response is received. So what is happening is your check for if(status==1) is happening before the volley response is received. Hence it is 0.

What you should do:

1) Make your function return type void.

2) In onResponse, put the code

if (status == 1) { // ** STATUS IS 0 HERE **
        statusBoolean = true;
    } else {
        statusBoolean = false;
}
