Exception dispatching input event with jsoup get url

Question

When trying to parse a website using jsoup, the following onTouch method always throws at Jsoup.parse(url, 3000);

public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    try {
        URL url = new URL("http://www.google.com");
        Document xmlDoc = Jsoup.parse(url, 3000);
        Elements title = xmlDoc.select("title");
        textView.setText(title.get(0).text());
    } catch (MalformedURLException e1) {
        e1.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    // ...
}

Looking at the stacktrace, it appears that you are trying to make a network call on the main thread (NetworkOnMainThreadException). Try running the code inside the onTouch handler on a background thread, for instance using AsyncTask

You shouldn't use Jsoup for parsing the url directly.

Internally, Jsoup uses HttpUrlConnection for downloading the url content. On the Android Platform, this class has known issues and is slow. You shouldn't use AsyncTask either. I don't even talk about HttpClient.

Instead use Volley. It is ten "times faster"(1) than traditional Android approaches for loading urls. You can find a small sample code here: How to use Jsoup with Volley?

As the stacktrace in the question appears, it seems a hostname can't be resolved.

(1): "Volley got a score up to ten times better than the other alternatives (...)"
