how to display webview current url stored in string in dialog box - android

Question

I am trying to get Web View current URL in dialog box.

I used following code, but its giving error

String webUrl1 = web.getUrl();
builder.setMessage(webUrl1);

here is full code.

i am trying to match url in if condition. but it doesn't giving any error nor working properly.

    //setting up web view
    setContentView(R.layout.main);
    web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
    setUpWebView();
    web.loadUrl("http://www.example.com");

    String webUrl1 = web.getUrl();

    if (webUrl1=="http://www.example.com"){
    //do something.
    }

@FAAD: please check if the webview is redirected to "domain.com/", so "domain.com" won't match... — A.D., Jan 07 '15 at 08:04

That's not how we compare strings in java. Change this

if (webUrl1=="http://www.example.com"){

with

if (webUrl1.equalsIgnoreCase("http://www.example.com")){

but this should not lead to OP's error. – Raptor Jan 07 '15 at 02:57
He never mentioned he is getting any specific error. See OP's comments. It simply means its not working. – Rohit5k2 Jan 07 '15 at 03:00
I guess his last issue with builder is resolved. Please see the question, – Rohit5k2 Jan 07 '15 at 03:01
yes no error let me try.. – FAAD Jan 07 '15 at 03:03
no doesn't work... now not opening the app getting message "unfortunately , app has stopped" – FAAD Jan 07 '15 at 03:09
It means your code is working now; Just not the way it was supposed to. Please post the logcat error output. – Rohit5k2 Jan 07 '15 at 03:09
@Rohit5k2 i found the error... String webUrl1 = web.getUrl(); not getting current url from the webview.... when i passed direct text into string it works... – FAAD Jan 07 '15 at 03:38
