Volley - http request in blocking way

Question

I\'m learning how to use Google Volley these days. It\'s very convenient for fast networking. It seems that all the requests are running in background in Volley. For example

Answer 1

I couldn't get RequestFuture working so I just used a callback listener like Makibo suggested. I've no idea why he was downvoted, this is probably the best solution for the original common problem of different Volley requests that all depends on an initial Login or something. In this example, I want to upload a photo but first I've to check if user is logged in or not. If not, I've to login and then wait for success before uploading the photo. If already logged in, just go straight to uploading the photo.

Here's my sample code:

// interface we'll use for listener
public interface OnLoginListener {
    public void onLogin();
}

public void uploadPhoto(final String username, final String password, final String photo_location) {
    // first setup callback listener that will be called if/when user is logged in
    OnLoginListener onLoginListener=new OnLoginListener() {
        @Override
        public void onLogin() {
            uploadPhotoLoggedIn(photo_location);
        }
    };
    // simplistic already logged in check for this example, just checking if username is null
    if (loggedInUsername==null) {
        // if it null, login and pass listener
        httpLogin(username, password, onLoginListener);
    } else {
        // if not null, already logged in so just call listener method
        onLoginListener.onLogin();
    }
}

public void httpLogin(String username, String password, final OnLoginListener onLoginListener) {
    StringRequest loginRequest = new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST, "https://www.example.com/login.php", new Response.Listener() { 
        @Override
        public void onResponse(String txtResponse) {
            Log.d("STACKOVERFLOW",txtResponse);
            // call method of listener after login is successful. so uploadPhotoLoggedIn will be called now
            onLoginListener.onLogin();
        } }, 
        new Response.ErrorListener() 
        {
            @Override
            public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Log.d("VOLLEYERROR","error => "+error.toString());
            }
        }
            ) {
    };    
    // Just getting the Volley request queue from my application class (GetApplicatio.java), and adding request
    GetApplication.getRequestQueue().add(loginRequest);
}
