I guess the exception tells you that you are over-allocating memory. There
are quite strict limits on Android, but your code would fail on any platform
(apart from a Turing machine) if the download size is large enough.You will
need to loop over the input stream with something like this (no warranty)
void downloadUrl(URL url, File destination) throws IOException {
FileOutputStream writer = null;
try {
writer = new FileOutputStream(destination);
InputStream is = url.openConnection().getInputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int count = 0;
while(-1 != (count = is.read(buffer))){
writer.write(buffer, 0, count);
}
} finally {
writer.close();
}
}
