5*d353a188SXin LiThis sample demonstrates how to connect to the network and fetch raw HTML using
6*d353a188SXin LiHttpsURLConnection. AsyncTask is used to perform the fetch on a background thread.

11*d353a188SXin LiThis sample demonstrates how to connect to the network and fetch raw HTML using
12*d353a188SXin Li[`HttpsURLConnection`][4]. Since API 11, it is required by default that all network
13*d353a188SXin Lioperations run on a background thread in order to avoid hanging on the UI thread. Only
14*d353a188SXin Liwhen the network response is ready should the work return to the main thread to update
15*d353a188SXin Lithe UI. An [`AsyncTask`][3] is a viable background task manager that is used to perform
16*d353a188SXin Lithe network operation and return to the UI thread upon completion.
17*d353a188SXin Li
18*d353a188SXin LiThe sample also utilizes the [`ConnectivityManager`][1] to determine if you have
19*d353a188SXin Lia network connection, and if so, what type of connection it is.
20*d353a188SXin Li
21*d353a188SXin LiUsing an [`AsyncTaskLoader`][6] or an [`IntentService`][5] are two common alternatives
22*d353a188SXin Lifor managing longer running background work.
