URLConnection and the Apache HttpClient classes are both in Android. Both are used extensively in regular Java, outside of Android, as well. You will find URLConnection tutorials here: http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.net/pkg.html And HttpClient examples here: http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client/examples.html > On top of that, how would I go about parsing an XML file?

The first two are (API-wise) straight out of standard Java, so there are many books and tutorials available, such as those at: http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/javax.xml.parsers/pkg.html XmlPullParser is described at: http://xmlpull.org/ -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 2.0 Published! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
