UrlListener Android Help

I am a little confused as to how the registerUrlListener and urlWasInvoked methods work? I have look through the examples and read the sdk documentation, but i still don't quite understand.

So in the javascript lets say you do :

var architectSdkUrl = "architectsdk://markerselected?

document.location = architectSdkUrl

Then if i am correct you just need to register the Url MarkerSelected? Which gives you something like this below? Honestly Any help would be much appreciated.

public void registerUrlListener (ArchitectView.ArchitectUrlListener markerselected){
    @Override
    public boolean urlWasInvoked(String arg0){

        return false;
    }});
}

Hi Ashley,

Here is an example where the document location is

var location = "architectsdk://markerselected?id=" +
			encodeURIComponent(currentMarker.poiData.id) + 
			"&title=" + 
			encodeURIComponent(currentMarker.poiData.title) + 
			"&description=" + 
			encodeURIComponent(currentMarker.poiData.description);

the java code to handle it looks like this:

ArchitectUrlListener urlListener = new ArchitectUrlListener() {
	@Override
	public boolean urlWasInvoked(String uriString) {
		Uri invokedUri = Uri.parse(uriString);
				
		// pressed "More" button on POI-detail panel
		if ("markerselected".equalsIgnoreCase(invokedUri.getHost())) {
			String id = String.valueOf(invokedUri.getQueryParameter("id"));
			String title = String.valueOf(invokedUri.getQueryParameter("title"));			
			String description = String.valueOf(invokedUri.getQueryParameter("description"));

			// do something with id, title, description			

			return true;
		}
		return true;
	}
});

// should be done in onCreate
architectView.registerArchitectUrlListener(urlListener);

There is also a new API for JS->Java connections, which is easier to use, coming in the next release which deprecates the document.location API. The release will be available in this week.

Best Regards,
