This sample demonstrates how to check network connectivity with Android APIs.
It utilizes the ConnectivityManager
to determine if you have
a network connection, and if so, what type of connection it is.
A NetworkInfo
object is retrieved from the ConnectivityManager, which contains information
on the active connection, and then the connection type is printed to an on-screen console.
Multiple types of connectivity can be displayed and could be used to take different measures in actual production code.
- Android SDK v23
- Android Build Tools v23.0.1
