Loading Cache when Offline in Android Webview

Question

I have an application which loads urls from a website. Now I want that the application to use the cache when offline. But I just get the failure page which says that im not

Answer 1

In addition to the permissions

.INTERNET

.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE

mentioned in another answer, I also needed the following changes to the code:

if(cm != null && cm.getActiveNetworkInfo() != null && cm.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected()){
    webView.getSettings().setCacheMode(WebSettings.LOAD_DEFAULT);
}
else{
    webView.getSettings().setCacheMode(WebSettings.LOAD_CACHE_ELSE_NETWORK);
}

Otherwise the app would crash when trying to get the network info on first startup, if I were not connected to either WiFi or Mobile Network.

Answer 2

OK. The code is fine above. The permission needed to be added are:

.INTERNET

.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE

.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE
