java.io.IOException: grpc failed

Question

When I use call getFromLocationName I get an IOException with description \"grpc failed\".

Code that\'s ran

@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMa         


        

Answer 1

From my experience, I can say this error is thrown by the Geocoder's getFromLocation() method. So don't do the following:

• Do not call this method on main thread. This will freeze the UI and if anything which depends on the result of this method will crash. Handle this case.
• When there's no internet connection, again, the IOExeption will be thrown. Again, anything depending on the result of this method will crash. Handle this case.
