WebView Methods is not called in android
android, methods, webview
Solution
The warning is telling you everything. You are calling the webview methods directly. That means you are calling them on WebViewCoreThread. You have to call them on the UI Thread that means in the Activity which uses this webview.
Like:
WebView wv = (WebView)findViewById(id);
wv.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wv.setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
wv.setPluginsEnabled(true);
wv.loadUrl("javascript:android.selection.longTouch();");
Problem
My Web view is not calling the javascript function it is returning warning like below. Can anybody suggest how to get rid of the below warning. `07-30 10:15:44.031: W/webview_proxy(3770): java.lang.Throwable: Warning: A WebView method was called on thread 'WebViewCoreThread'. All WebView methods must be called on the UI thread. Future versions of WebView may not support use on other threads.` Below is my function. ``` public boolean onLongClick(View v){ System.out.println("dfdsf"); // Tell the javascript to handle this if not in selection mode //if(!this.isInSelectionMode()){ this.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); this.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true); this.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true); this.loadUrl("javascript:android.selection.longTouch();"); mScrolling = true; //this.setJavaScriptEnabled(true); //} // Don't let the webview handle it return true; } ```
